A Delta Air Lines customer created a huge scene at an airport, jumping behind the check-in counter and evading capture by police while threatening to ‘kill’ them.
The video shared on TikTok shows a woman, wearing a yellow sweater already behind the ticket counter, stand up and declare: ‘Don’t trust cops, only trust firemen.’
A cop approaches the woman and she screams, ‘Get away from me!’
As the cop goes behind the counter, the woman runs off saying, ‘Get away from me’, and goes under and undoes some of the stanchions.
‘I will kill you, I will f***ing kill you,’ she says, pointing at officers.
As another cop approaches from another direction, she dashes away, causing him to falls to the floor in the missed attempt at grabbing her.
The woman then ducks under another stanchion and goes behind the counter again.
She is finally held down by cops at the end of the more than 30-second clip.
Posted on Wednesday, the video included the caption, ‘I’m just trying to get my boarding pass,’ and an emoji of a smiling face with a tear.
The weird incident happened at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport in Georgia. The exact date was unclear.
Her identity and any charges against her, and the reason for her meltdown, were not immediately known
