Video uploaded to Tik Tok shows a man bleeding from the head being removed from a Miami, Florida to Las Vegas flight. The surgical wounds appear to be from a hair transplant procedure he had done in Miami.
27 year old Eugenio Ernesto Hernandez-Garnier boarded the plane with a bloodied head and bandages that were falling off. The American Airlines crew in Miami asked him to clean up the blood and to replace his bandage, but he said he didn't have any extra bandages. The crew asked him to leave the plane because they were concerned about his well being, and that his bleeding surgical wounds made him a walking bio hazard. He was bleeding from his head!
According to Local 10 in Miami, Eugenio "and his travel companion, Yusleydis Blanca Loyola, 32, also of Las Vegas, refused to leave, saying “if they could not fly, no one else can either.” Here's the video of the incident.
Your Surgical Wounds Are Bleeding!
The crew then called the police to have the pair removed from the plane, and they still refused. The Miami cops had to put him in handcuffs to get them off the plane. If you don't speak Spanish, at one point the wife was yelling at the police that he just had surgery and that it was 'dried blood'. Because of course, that should make it ok.
And Now For The Wrap Up
People cheered and applauded as the two were led off the plane. Eugenio was taken to the hospital to have his surgical wounds checked before the two of them were transported to jail. The both face charges of trespassing after being warned, and resisting an officer without violence. Unfortunately, the rest of the passengers also had to deboard, causing the flight to be delayed.
If you're looking for some real Miami antics, the videos in that link above are just insane. Safe travels everyone!
5 Florida Airports Rank As Worst For Lost Luggage In US
Vacations and travel are supposed to be fun right? What could be worse then getting to your destination to find that your luggage has been lost? No one wants to wear their plane clothes any longer than they have to.
Unfortunately, it's happening all too often across the United States and apparently, especially here in Florida.
I've been a victim of lost luggage in the past and it just plain sucks. That's all there is to it. We spend so much time packing and planning, to make sure we've got everything we need for a trip. Then to find out you've got nothing, and don't know when or if your stuff will ever reach you. UGH! Super frustrating.
