A crazed man allegedly went on a violent rampage after breaching airport security in Montana and storming onto an Alaska Airlines plane — all because “bad people” had told him to fly to Estonia, cops said.
Justin Reed Seymour, 34, was arrested over the wild saga after he allegedly managed to tear through a security checkpoint and evade multiple TSA agents at Missoula International Airport on Oct. 22, KGVO reported.
Agents could be heard screaming “breach” and “stop him” as Seymour bolted towards the plane, which had only just landed and was in the process of deplaning, authorities said.

He knocked one airport staffer to the ground as he ran down the jet bridge, court papers allege.
Seymour then allegedly stormed onto the plane and tried to reach the cockpit — assaulting two flight attendants as they tried to block him.
One of the flight crew was shoved into the cockpit door, while the other attendant had their hand and fingers crushed trying to rotate the deadbolt.
When law enforcement boarded just moments later, Seymour was allegedly saying he had to get to Estonia.

He later told cops “bad people” had told him to take the aircraft, the court papers charge.
“All I had to do was fly the plane but I didn’t … I thought I was going to be able to,” he said, according to cops.
Asked if he knew how to fly a jet, he allegedly responded, “It seems easy enough to learn.”
Seymour was charged with felony robbery and felony aggravated burglary.
He is being held at the Missoula County Detention Facility on a $500,000 bond.
