Narrative:

After completing our beverage and meal service, we hit turbulence. Flight attendants #3, #4, and #7 were in the vicinity of the aft galley. We immediately ran for empty passenger seats and buckled our seatbelts. During this time we heard a male passenger screaming in the lavatory. We all jumped up and ran to the lavatory. Flight attendant #3 kept asking 'are you all right?' but he kept screaming. Flight attendant #3 tried to open the door from the outside with her cockpit key, but the passenger was leaning against the door. Flight attendant #4 and I pushed in on the door while flight attendant #3 opened the door with her cockpit key. Once we established the passenger wasn't hurt, flight attendant #4 and I sat down. Flight attendant #3 was the closest and spoke to him to make sure he was ok. When flight attendant #3 shut the door he yelled 'of course I'm ok you stupid bitch.' flight attendant #3 pushed the door open and said 'what did you say?' the passenger said nothing. Flight attendant #3 explained we all heard him scream and we thought he was injured and fell against the door when we couldn't open it. Flight attendant #3 returned to her seat. When the male passenger came out of the lavatory, he stopped in the aisle l-hand side and he fondled his genitals and he kept saying over and over 'it's a haitian thing.' we all told him to situation down and fasten his seatbelt, it's turbulent, but he just stood there fondling himself and telling us 'it's a haitian thing.' yes, he was drinking out of his own bottle. Yes, the flight service director told him to put it away or it would be taken away. The purser and several flight attendants told him the same so he gave it to another passenger and they both drank. Yes, alcohol was the problem.
