Flight attendants tried to calm her, but she continued screaming profanities in Japanese and hit four flight attendants before being handcuffed and seat belted in her seat. She continued to struggle and unbuckled her seatbelt several times, causing flight attendants to set up a 30-minute rotation to watch her. Pilots were forced to dump 70,000 pounds of jet fuel to land in Anchorage and hand her over to local police.
