    A passenger had a mental breakdown at the Chicago O’Hare International Airport and amidst her outrage, she chucked a computer monitor at Frontier Airlines employees.

    Knewz.com has learned that the woman began grabbing and berating the airline staff after learning that she had missed her flight .

    Footage of the incident showed the woman climbing over a baggage conveyor belt to reach the staff area, following which she started verbally abusing Frontier Airlines staff.

    When one of the staffers pushed her back, the woman grabbed a computer monitor and hurled it at the airline employees, which hit one of the staffers in the stomach.

    In the footage, the woman could be seen grabbing another computer and slamming it to the ground.

    According to the Chicago Police Department, the woman also chucked a cell phone that hit a 40-year-old victim.

    She also hit a 24-year-old woman in the leg, the police further stated.

    After causing the scene, the 31-year-old outraged passenger climbed back over while shouting “Stupid!” at the Frontier Airlines employees.

    The woman fled the location after the incident.

    The Chicago Police Department has stated that no one has been taken into custody in relation to the incident.

    The video of the incident was captured and shared by a fellow passenger on July 30.

    The person who filmed the video clip stated that the outraged woman had missed her flight, and erupted when the airline staff did not allow her to board.

    Airlines are often the scene of heated arguments and outrage incidents, as earlier in the same month, a JetBlue Airlines passenger got into an intense face-off with a mother and her teenage son.

    The argument on the JetBlue flight from JFK International Airport in New York broke out when one of the passengers accused the mother of further delaying the already delayed flight.

    One of the passengers on the flight recorded the entire kerfuffle and posted it on her Instagram handle , which was shared by the independent Instagram news outlet PPV Tahoe .

    Karoll Chanel Morel, who recorded the video , told PPV Tahoe that the flight had already been delayed several times before the fight broke out between the mother and a fellow passenger.

    As the delayed flight was preparing to take off from JFK International Airport on June 23, flight attendants noticed the mother and her teen son, each holding an infant, and proceeded to tell her that one of the children must be accompanied by an adult for the flight.

    This led to another delay as the plane was made to return to the gate.

    At this point, a helpful co-passenger offered to hold one of the infants during the flight “if the mom was OK with it.” The man can be seen in the video holding one of the infants as the fight broke out.

    “She said yes, so they went to change the baby under his name. As soon as the issue was resolved & we were about to take off the dude [the angry co-passenger] starts going crazy,” Morel told the independent Instagram news outlet.

    The enraged passenger, seen in the video as wearing a black baseball hat and a black Adidas shirt, began yelling at the mother, calling her a “stupid a– b—-” and accusing her of delaying the flight.

    Moments later, the person was also seen making her teenage son the target of his vicious verbal attacks, asking both the mother and her son to “shut the f— up.”
