A Delta Air Lines flight attendant was attacked on Monday night onboard a flight from Miami to Atlanta after a passenger refused to wear a mask. The unruly passenger struck the flight attendant across the face after refusing to comply with onboard safety procedures.
The perpetrator, along with a fellow passenger, got into a verbal altercation with the flight attendant before the dispute escalated. The Miami Dade Police Department eventually removed two passengers from the plane, which was delayed by over four hours due to the incident.
