Officers, informed by DFW law enforcement, boarded the aircraft around 4 p.m. and identified the pilot as Seymour Walker, 45, who was wanted on an assault-family violence warrant issued by the DFW International Airport Department of Public Safety. Walker was taken into custody without incident before passengers began boarding.
Frontier Airlines confirmed that on August 1 a crew member was taken into custody by officers at IAH in Houston.
The incident happened just before the start of boarding for Flight 3195, which was scheduled to travel from IAH to DFW.
Due to the absence of an immediate replacement crew member, Frontier Airlines canceled the flight. Passengers affected by the cancellation were given several options, including a full refund, flight credit, or re-accommodation on the next available Frontier flight later that evening. Additionally, the airline provided a $100 flight voucher and overnight hotel accommodations as necessary.
Saturday afternoon, court records indicated that Walker had bonded out of custody.
