(80) Spit on & Punch - Ex-Playboy model Patricia Cornwall former Patty Breton freaks out on plane
An ex-Playboy model has been arrested by the FBI, charged with assault after she punched and spat at an 80-year-old man on a plane.
Last week, things got out of hand aboard a Delta Air Lines plane from Tampa to Florida: a crazed woman, later identified as Patricia Cornwall, 51, got into it with an 80-year-old passenger.
Ex-Playboy model and cheerleader Patricia Cornwall had a mini-role on "Baywatch" decades ago.
According to media reports, she got upset because the man would not put on his mask while eating and drinking. However, even his nose and mouth had not covered. Another passenger recorded everything in a video.
MAN (80) PUNCHED IN THE FACE

Cornwall jumps up from her seat, "Put your damn mask on," she scolds the elderly passenger while her mask hangs under her chin, "Sit down, Karen," the man replies. Why he calls her Karen is not known. The most likely explanation: the name "Karen" has become a pejorative synonym on the Internet for primarily white women, perceived as privileged, who react to trifles in an effervescent, demanding and exaggeratedly angry manner.

Back to the plane. The argument escalates. "Mask up!" the model yells. "Pull up your mask, bit*h!" he replies.
Thereupon the ex-Playboy model slaps the 80-year-old in the face. His reply: "You're going to jail!"
Crew members try to restrain the woman. She is led down the aisle screaming, "You fuc*ing piece of sh*t!"
In the video clip, someone is heard saying the woman "went crazy on the plane, punched the man in the face, spit on him, scratched him (and) poured hot water on my leg."
After landing in Atlanta, Cornwall was arrested Thursday, followed by an assault charge Monday.

She did not want to comment on the incident on the plane when asked by the "New York Post".
