Selma Blair, the 54-year-old actress known for her roles in Cruel Intentions (1999), Legally Blonde, and Hellboy, was arrested on October 11, 2026, after an alleged altercation aboard Delta Air Lines Flight 938, which landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. Authorities from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey responded to a report of a physically abusive passenger following the flight’s arrival.
According to charging documents cited by multiple outlets, Blair is accused of punching one flight attendant and biting another during the incident, with dispatch audio reportedly referencing a bloody nose and visible bite marks. One crew member was taken to hospital for treatment. The airline confirmed no operational issues occurred during the flight but reiterated its zero-tolerance policy toward unruly or unlawful behavior, stating safety of customers and crew remains paramount.
After being detained, Blair was transported to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center. There, she allegedly kicked a Port Authority police officer who was escorting her to the stretcher — claiming the officer sustained pain and swelling, and later kicked a nurse while being moved. She has since been charged with two counts of second-degree assault related to these incidents.
