An Arizona man was indicted in Alaska for alleged sexual abuse of a 16-year-old girl during a flight.
Kepueli Talaiasi, 58, was accused of groping a teen girl who was sitting next to him during a flight from Phoenix, Arizona to Anchorage, Alaska on Apr. 26.
The minor, who was traveling with her father, reportedly pushed Talaiasi's hand away several times. She even tried to move away from the suspect in her seat, according to a People report.
Authorities said that she then wrote a note to her father on her phone about the Arizona man touching her. The minor's father then called the flight attendants, and they intervened. The teen girl was then separated from the suspect.
