A 31-year-old Mexican man, identified only as Mario N, was arrested after attempting to hijack a Volaris domestic flight from León to Tijuana. The incident unfolded mid-flight, when Mario N allegedly assaulted a flight attendant and tried to breach the cockpit.

Following President-elect Trump’s claim that Mexico agreed to close its border with the US, Mexican President Sheinbaum vehemently denied the assertion.
