What’s in Cranberries frontwoman Dolores O’Riordan’s head? Apparently, a whole lot of something — enough to reportedly headbutt a flight attendant.
According to the BBC, O’Riordan was arrested Monday (Nov. 10) after allegedly attacking a stewardess aboard an Aer Lingus flight. She’s since been released by Irish police, but was taken to a hospital in Limerick and had complained of being ill at a local police station.
According to police, they boarded the flight in Shannon, Ireland. The hostess was injured with a possible foot fracture and was taken to a local hospital. A police officer was also injured in the fracas, though not seriously. O’Riordan was detained and questioned for alleged assault.
TMZ reported O’Riordan headbutted the police officer after being arrested, though the original BBC report did not confirm it.
