A JetBlue pilot who was arrested last month at Boston’s Logan Airport before a flight shot himself in the parking lot of a train station on Friday morning.
Jeremy Gudorf, 33, shot himself in his car in a parking garage in Revere, Massachusetts, as he was approached by troopers with the Massachusetts State Police Violent Fugitive Apprehension.
Reports say that Gudorf was alive when troopers found him in the parking lot, before he pulled out a gun and ‘abruptly shot himself.’
Gudorf was arrested at Boston Logan Airport on February 20 on an outstanding warrant from another state, where he was accused of having sex with an underage minor.
He was due to turn himself over to police in North Carolina to face those charges, but failed to make the trip. The troopers who witnessed his suicide were on their way to collect him and hand him over to North Carolina authorities.
His warrants were only discovered after US Customs and Border Protection conducted a review of the manifest of his flight from Boston to Paris, and he was hauled off the plane moments before takeoff.
His bail was set at $10,000 with the condition he appeared in court in North Carolina, however when he failed to show up. He was also scheduled for a court date in Massachusetts for March 19.
JetBlue told Boston25 that Gudorf had been placed on indefinite leave, and said it was ‘closely reviewing’ the case.
