A shocking incident happened in a recent US flight ended with an amazing show of passengers sticking together and saving a woman from getting assaulted. A video of this amazing event, which happened on the flight, is now making headlines.
Reportedly, a man in that flight allegedly tried to harass and assault a female passenger mid-flight. However, fellow passengers came to the rescue by shielding the female passenger ensuring her safety till the flight landed.
The incident took place in an American Airlines flight from Miami to Charlotte, North Carolina.
As per the footage, the man became violent towards the female passenger sitting next to him. He continued his aggressive behaviour towards the lady which prompted the nearby passengers to intervene. One passenger yelled, “Get your f**king hands off of her!” as other passengers rushed to control the situation. The video was posted by Epoch Times. Reporter Arjun Singh showed at least three men confronting the man as flight attendants stood in the aisle.
“Get your fking hands off of her right now,” a passenger shouted. “You touch her again you’re gonna get fking arrested.” The man said. Another passenger asked the lady if she was alright and encouraged her to move to a different seat.
The flight attendants promptly responded to the situation. Other passengers returned to their seats. The plane landed in Charlotte 26 minutes early, and local law enforcement officers were present there as they informed before the flight landed. The authorities investigated the passengers and eye witnesses of the altercation for more information.
“Two customers traveling together were engaged in an altercation aboard American Airlines flight 310, with service from Miami (MIA) to Charlotte (CLT) on Oct 2. Local law enforcement responded and escorted the customers from the CLT airport,” a spokesperson for American Airlines confirmed.
It’s unclear if the man was arrested or charged after the fight.
