American Airlines Employee Appears to Attack a Mom
An explosive new Facebook video shows the aftermath of a woman allegedly being hit in the head by an American Airlines flight attendant.
The video was posted by Surain Adyanthaya, another passenger on American Airlines Flight 591, from San Francisco to Dallas-Ft. Worth on Friday afternoon.
“OMG! AA Flight attendant violently took a stroller from a lady with her baby on my flight, hitting her and just missing the baby,” Adyanthaya wrote on Facebook. “Then he tried to fight a passenger who stood up for her.”
Although the below video doesn't show the actual hitting on the head with the stroller, the aftermath is still disturbing:
The video also shows the same flight attendant in a fight with another passenger who attempted to come to the woman’s defense.
For their part, American Airlines has suspended the flight attendant, and said it is investigating the incident.
“We have seen the video and have already started an investigation to obtain the facts,” American Airlines spokesperson Leslie Scott said in an email to The Washington Post. “What we see on this video does not reflect our values or how we care for our customers.”
