US actress Selma Blair is the subject of an FBI investigation after an alleged incident on a commercial flight from Los Angeles to New York in which flight attendants were reportedly involved.
According to reports, the dispute on board has led federal authorities to examine whether any criminal conduct occurred. The exact circumstances surrounding the alleged altercation, including the timing and specific allegations, have not been made public.
Blair, described in reports as a Legally Blonde star, has had a long career in film and television. The inquiry by federal agents marks a significant escalation from an airline or local probe, reflecting the potential seriousness of allegations involving crew members on a domestic flight.
Under U.S. law, incidents that occur on aircraft or during interstate travel can fall under federal jurisdiction, which can lead to involvement by the FBI. It was not immediately clear whether any charges would be filed, and no further details have been released as the investigation continues.
