Fists fly in ‘drunk’ attack at UK airport

An apparently drunken British man shoved his girlfriend to the floor and slugged a security worker at an airport in England after being barred from a flight, a wild video reveals.

The 19-second clip shows the man and his girlfriend arguing with workers at Bristol Airport when he abruptly pushes the woman aside, sending her reeling, and charges at the one of the employees.

The unidentified couple — identified by police as a 39-year-old man and 37year-old woman — had reportedly been refused entry on an EasyJet flight to Alicante, Spain, because he was intoxicated.

The girlfriend is first seen lifting her arms while screaming at an airport employee. Her boyfriend then runs at the worker, knocking him to the ground as onlookers gasp.

Police told BristolLive that the man and woman were arrested for assault.

Somerset police said the incident took place at 9:30 p.m. on June 17.

One witness, Steve Rich, 33, of Wiltshire, told the local outlet, “All of a sudden, the passenger just threw a fist over one of the guy’s shoulders and just caught the security guard on the mouth.”

Rich called the incident “unnecessary” and said it upset those who saw it.

“The two girls who were working at the [gate] were in floods of tears because it’s scary for them,” Rich said.

“Before the security arrived, you’ve got these two people saying, ‘How are you going to stop us getting through to get on this flight?’ . . . There were kids everywhere.”

An airport rep told the news outlet, “Anti-social, violent or threatening behavior will not be accepted by Bristol Airport or airlines.”
