The Leominster Massachusetts man who tried to open the door of a United Airlines plane headed for Boston has been sentenced to time served.
Francisco Severo Torres also was accused of trying to stab a flight attendant in the neck with a broken metal spoon during the incident in March of 2023.
Torres has served around 26 months in jail while his case was pending in court.
He's also sentenced to spend five years on supervised release, and cannot fly on a commercial plane during that period of time.
