Video: Woman Slaps Spirit Airlines Agent, Gets Slapped Back

A video of a woman acting out and attacking a Spirit Airlines agent at Dallas/Fort Worth airport has gone viral. In the clip, the unnamed woman and the gate agent are yelling at each other as she repeating touches and pushes him. When another man intercedes trying to diffuse the situation, she reaches around the second man and slaps the agent. That sets the agent off and as she attempts to run from him, she trips on some chairs. The agent catches up to her, and trips falling on top of her. He then slaps the woman’s back which suddenly gets the onlookers involved. The incident apparently happened at DFW airport on August 11. Spirit Airlines has issued a statement acknowledging the altercation and sharing the agent has been suspended.

But the woman was totally out of line by escalating the violence. Sometimes, when you play with fire you get burned. Don’t write a check your ass can’t cash. The clip, shared by the Twitter account DTX Daily, has been viewed almost 11 million times.

We are aware of this altercation. Our vendor at DFW has suspended the agent. Spirit Airlines does not tolerate violence of any kind, and we are working with local law enforcement to investigate this matter.

This woman caused this issue clearly. Spirit airlines need to ban her and she should be charged for hitting him. He got loud, but she wants to behave like trash and start a fight, well then she gets one. From another females point of view she is the primary aggressor.
