Wild new video shows catfight on Vegas-bound flight that forced emergency landing
New video has emerged of the foul-mouthed catfight between two women who forced a Frontiers Airlines flight to make an emergency landing – with the footage showing one getting physical with the crew.
The clip obtained by TMZ shows flight attendants trying frantically to restore order on Flight 2143 after it erupted in mayhem on its way from Philadelphia to Las Vegas on Tuesday night.
“Shut the f—- up!” a woman in a red blouse is seen shouting at a passenger before being restrained by a flight attendant and confronted by another crew member.
“Don’t f—- touch me!” she yells at a male flight attendant, whom she pushes away amid the pandemonium in the aisle.
Passengers told the news outlet that the brawl erupted after one of the women may have spilled a drink on a man and another flier yelled at them to clam up.
A Vegas woman who captured another clip of the incident said the two combatants continued to hurl expletives at each other even after finally being separated.
One of them also apparently struck a male passenger as she stormed off to the toilet.
“Just get your s— together so we can get home,” a passenger was heard saying.
The flight diverted to Denver International Airport, where the women were escorted off the plane to cheers and applause.
“Luckily the Vegas-based Frontier crew was great,” said the woman, who praised the crew for how it handled the madness, which a Frontier spokesperson said delayed the flight by about an hour.
Denver police told TMZ that they did not arrest the two women, who have not been identified, and the FBI said its agents did not respond in person to the incident.
