A millionaire rock star caused mayhem at 35,000ft with a drunken rampage on a British Airways jumbo jet, a jury heard yesterday. Peter Buck, 45-year-old guitarist with the group REM, was said to have grappled with two stewardesses after downing 15 glasses of wine. The American demanded to be taken home and tried to open one of the exit doors, abused the captain and his crew, overturned a trolley smashing all the crockery and tried to hide a knife up his sleeve, Isleworth Crown Court was told. When the pilot handed him a written warning over his behaviour, he swore and ripped it up. And when Captain Tom Payne told him to calm down, saying that the plane might have to be diverted if he did not behave, Buck was said to have replied: 'I am REM and I can make up a story I was assaulted.' He was so drunk that he tried to attack a steward with a pot of yoghurt and a spoon, and attempted to insert a CD into a hostess trolley because he wanted to hear some music, the jury of six men and six women heard. Buck denies two counts of assault, one of drunkenness on an aircraft and one of criminal damage.
If found guilty he faces up to four years in jail. He sat in the dock in a pinstriped suit and tie as prosecutor David Bate, QC, told the court how, in April last year, Buck was flying from Seattle to London with REM colleagues Michael Stipe and Mike Mills. They were appearing at Nelson Mandela's 'Freedom Day' concert in Trafalgar Square. Mr Bate said Buck did not appear drunk when he and his tour manager took their seats in first class but it was clear to cabin staff he had been drinking.
After take-off he ordered glass after glass of red wine. 'He consumed about 15 glasses over about three hours. He kept asking for more.' After Buck repeatedly spilled wine and staggered to the lavatory, the purser ignored his demands for more.
But Buck insisted on going to the galley and pouring wine unsteadily into his glass, the court heard. He then unsuccessfully demanded whisky, tried to grab bottles of wine from galley lockers and made attempts to bribe the crew to give him more drink.
Captain Payne cautioned the rock star about his behaviour and handed him a 'yellow card' written warning. 'Buck held the letter a few inches in front of Capt Payne's face. He said the captain knew what he could do with his f****** letter. He tore it into pieces.' After mistaking the cabin trolley for a CD player, Buck asked to be moved to sit next to a female passenger claiming to steward Mario Agius that she was his wife. He then punched the wall of the aircraft and advanced towards the steward holding a tub of yoghurt in one hand and a metal spoon in the other. 'Mr Agius, thinking the yoghurt was going to end up over him, grabbed the spoon and tub of yoghurt.
Buck struggled, pulling Mr Agius's jacket and tie. Buck said, 'I can f****** take you out any time'.' The tub of yoghurt exploded over Mr Agius, and stewardess Holly Ward became worried that Buck was going to attack her colleague with the spoon. She grabbed Buck's arm to pull it away. Buck reached over, took hold of her forearm and wrenched her hand away.
As crew members tried to restrain Buck and shepherd him back to his seat, the guitarist deliberately overturned Miss Ward's breakfast trolley and then tried to slip a knife up his sleeve, the court heard. Another stewardess, Lara Encechi, told the jury how she grappled with Buck as he lunged for the controls to an exit door screaming that he wanted to 'go home'. 'I tried to bring his hands away from the controls. He went for the door handle so I struggled with him and pulled his hands away. It was a struggle.' Miss Encechi said Buck grew tired and gave up his battle to open the door but then became stuck between the jump seats by the exit and had to be helped back to his seat by cabin staff. When arrested at Heathrow, Buck claimed to have slept all the way from Seattle but later allegedly admitted he had acted 'like a jerk', Mr Bate said.
The trial continues.
Facebook Some of the 58 shooting victims in Las Vegas. A registered nurse to save his wife. A veteran of the war in Afghanistan, from July, starts, “What’s it like being shot at?” A beloved special education teacher. A grandmother of five of her husband of 32 years. A high school secretary described as a “beautiful person.” A college student with a “huge heart” who overcame previous health issues. An off-duty cop called “Memoirs of a Public Servant.” These are just some of the at least 58 people who died in Las Vegas during the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. Heavy is committed to honoring them all.
You will find a photo and bio for each of the 58 deceased victims below. There were also at least 489 other people injured when the 64-year-old gunman armed with unleashed a barrage of bullets from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay onto a crowd of thousands of concert-goers who were attending the Route 91 Harvest Festival (the injury count dropped slightly on October 4 due to hospital double counting errors). More of the shooting victims. Each is profiled later in this story.
The victims’ personalities were captured and documented in heartbreaking posts and comments from loved ones, from those who knew them best (and which you can read below). They were a cross-section of America (and Canada in several cases): men and women, young and older (ranging in age from 20s to 60s), of different ethnic backgrounds, from different states, countries, experiences and occupations. The shooter represents the worst of us; they, say family and friends, represented the best, and within the list, we can all find, in a way, elements of ourselves. They died, horrifically and unfairly, simply because they chose to go to a concert in an American city for different reasons – vacations, birthdays, a pure love of the music, to protect the people there. The randomness of it all is deeply startling; in several cases, couples were standing together but only one was shot (or killed.) The difference: A few inches.
“I want the world to know Denise,” Tony Burditus told Fox News about and wife of 32 years with a “beautiful” smile who was shot while holding his hand and who died in his arms. “Get online if you haven’t already and look at photos and see her beautiful smile,” he said. The coldness of it all is something that is impossible to shake: Bullets fired from afar by a madman without clear motive who knew nothing of the people he killed. That is another reason why we must remember and humanize them – each and every one of them. Police said was found dead in the that he used to stage the shooting; it’s believed he killed himself. The shooter was identified as, a 64-year-old, nondescript, retired, divorced accountant who lived in a retirement community in Mesquite.
He killed his victims in the most indiscriminate and impersonal way possible, from a far above hotel window. Chris Roybal survived deployment to Afghanistan, only to die while watching a concert at home. He eloquently wrote about his service overseas and the challenges that came with it.
One man wrote on Facebook, “Chris Roybal died last night in Las Vegas. As you can see he served in the 25th and 4th Infantry Divisions in Afghanistan Sad he honorably served his country against a foreign enemy only to be shot Sad he honorably served his country against a foreign enemy only to be shot down by a coward back here in the USA RIP Chris I never knew you but proud to have served in the same military as you”. FacebookChris Roybal.
Roybal’s last Facebook post that is publicly visible dates to July. It is rather eerie – and incredibly moving – in retrospect.
He wrote: What’s it like being shot at?” A question people ask because it’s something that less that 1% of our American population will ever experience. Especially one on a daily basis. My response has always been the same, not one filled with a sense of pride or ego, but an answer filled with truth and genuine fear/anger. *which by the way, go hand in hand* Depending on my level of intoxication, I respond with nothing short of the truth from first hand experience. Entering with what our national News channels would report at the time as ‘the deadliest place on earth’ I was excited for my first taste of what real combat would be. What it would be like to be a real gunfighter in the modern day Wild Wild West. My first fight was something I never will forget.
Finishing up what was supposed to be a quick 4-hour foot patrol, I remember placing my hand on the Stryker and telling Bella how well she did. Hearing the most distinct sounds of a whip cracking and pinging of metal off of the vehicle I just had my hand resting on is something that most see in movies.
I remember that first day, not sure how to feel. It was never fear, to be honest, mass confusion. Sensory overloadfollowed by the most amount of natural adrenaline that could never be duplicated through a needle.
I was excited, angry and manic. Ready to take on what became normal everyday life in the months to follow. Taking on the fight head on, grabbing the figurative ‘Bull by the horns’.
Unfortunately, as the fights continue and as they as increase in numbers and violence, that excitement fades and the anger is all that’s left. The anger stays, long after your friends have died, the lives you’ve taken are buried and your boots are placed neatly in a box in some storage unit. Still covered in the dirt you’ve refused to wash off for fear of forgetting the most raw emotions you as a human being will ever feel again. What’s it like to be shot? It’s a nightmare no amount of drugs, no amount of therapy and no amount of drunk talks with your war veteran buddies will ever be able to escape. One man wrote on Roybal’s comment thread, after news broke that Roybal was among the Las Vegas victims: “A group of us (all police officers and some war vets) are in Nevada for a training conference.
I was tagged in this post and read it aloud to our group. Knowing what we know now we couldn’t help but tear up, hide behind our drinks, and walk out of the room. God Bless you for your service to our country.
It’s difficult to accept that you fought overseas for our country only to be killed by a coward when you came home.”. Sonny Melton, right, with his wife, Heather., of Paris, Tennessee, was the first victim of the shooting to be identified, Melton was at the Las Vegas concert with his wife, and she told the news station he saved her life while sacrificing his own. “At this point, I’m in complete disbelief and despair. I don’t know what to say. Sonny was the most kind-hearted, loving man I have ever met. He saved my life and lost his,” Heather Gulish Melton said in a statement to the news station. She “He saved my life.
He grabbed me and started running when I felt him get shot in the back. I want everyone to know what a kind-hearted, loving man he was, but at this point, I can barely breathe.”.

He worked in the emergency department at Henry County Medical Center and was attending the country music festival in Las Vegas with his wife, Heather Gulish Melton.” Christy Davis, assistant professor of nursing at the school, said, “You know how when you met someone and you just know that they’re good and kind?
That was Sonny. He just had a sweet, kind spirit about him.” A co-worker, Victoria Peyton Dowd, wrote on Facebook, “Terribly saddened to learn we lost one of our ER nurses from HCMC in the tragedy that took place in Las Vegas. My heart aches for Sonny Melton, his wife and family, and our HCMC family.
You never think about things like this happening to someone you know, much less someone from your work family. Sonny was such an amazing person and an amazing nurse. I’m thankful I had the pleasure of knowing such an awesome man.”. Quinton Robbins., 20, of Henderson, Nevada, has been identified as one of the victims killed in the shooting.

Another aunt, Doreen Hawk-Wells, “It is with a heavy heart that I post this. My beautiful nephew, Quinton Robbins age 20, was killed at the concert in Vegas last night. He was an amazing young man who had a huge heart and would do anything for anyone. He overcame health issues and did not let them interfere with living his life to the fullest. Please pray for our family, especially his parents and siblings. I can’t begin to imagine how they will deal with this. I love them with all my heart and wish I could take all the hurt and pain away.”.
