A Spirit airline employee is suspended after coming to blows with a woman.
A video recently went viral that showed an altercation between a Spirit airline employee and a passenger. In the 90-second clip, the employee was seen going toe to toe with a female at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
The video begins with the woman yelling at the man as he continues to try to block her. Eventually, another man tries to separate the two but the woman pushes the agent and calls him a “dumba**” N-word. She then slaps the employee on the head which causes him to explode.

“You have lost your mind! Don’t touch me ever in your life!” he screams at the woman.
The employee pushes pass a man trying to block him, and tackles the woman. As she’s getting up, he begins punching her before others rush to separate them.
“Everybody! Back up from me! This b*tch put her hands on me,” he yells at the crowd as he storms towards her.
The video ends with the employee getting into another argument with a different man who challenges to a fight rather than “f*cking with a woman.”
“You saw what she did,” the employee protests after warning the man, “I’ll fight whoever.”
The airline later stated they were aware of the incident and suspended the employee.
“Our vendor at DFW has suspended the agent,” the company said. “Spirit Airlines does not tolerate violence of any kind, and we are working with local law enforcement to investigate this matter.”
