Southwest Airlines Flight 1763
Southwest Airlines flight 1763 was a scheduled passenger flight, operated by Southwest Airlines, from McCarran International Airport, in Paradise, Nevada, to Salt Lake City International Airport, in Salt Lake City, Utah. On August 11, 2000, Jonathan Burton, a Las Vegas resident, stormed the cockpit door of the Boeing 737 operating the flight, in an apparent case of air rage. The 19-year-old was subdued by six to eight other passengers with such force that he died of asphyxiation.〔(Janofsky, Michael. "Neighbors' Gentler View Of Man Killed on Plane," ''The New York Times'', September 23, 2000. )〕 The death was initially believed to have been a heart attack.
==Incident==
There were conflicting reports of Burton's air rage and the events which happened on the plane. CBS News reported the conclusion of the U.S. Attorney's office that criminal charges would not be filed because the death was not intended.〔(Maher, Maureen. "A Death on Descent," CBS News, September 21, 2000. )〕 ''Time'' ran an article by Timothy Roche entitled "Homicide in the Sky" in which they described the ruckus rising after Burton had initially been subdued. According to the article, the eight men who pinned Burton rose after Burton had injured an off-duty officer in his struggles and pushed aside the men holding him.〔(Roche, Timothy. "Homicide in the Sky," ''Time'', September 24, 2000. )〕 ''Time'' reported that fellow passenger Dean Harvey said that one of the men involved continued jumping on Burton's chest even after he had been told that Burton was contained.
The medical examiner's autopsy report stated that when police arrived, "Mr. Burton was lying face down with at least one individual standing on his neck."〔(Janofsky, Michael. "U.S. Declines to Prosecute in Case of Man Beaten to Death on Jet," ''The New York Times'', September 21, 2000 )〕
