An unhinged plane passenger was escorted off a flight after verbally and physically assaulting another woman over her weight.
Leanna Perry, the 32-year-old passenger, pulled the other woman’s hair, spat on her, and hurled insults at her aboard a Southwest Airlines plane at LaGuardia Airport in New York.
The incident took place before takeoff at around 1 AM on a flight headed to Kansas City, Missouri, on Monday (June 16).
Dressed in a red baseball cap and an all-black outfit, Perry was removed from the plane after the Port Authority Police Department received a call about an “intoxicated passenger” exhibiting disruptive behavior, as per The Daily Mail.

Perry reportedly attacked the other passenger verbally before she began pulling her hair.
“Shut the f*** up, don’t f***ing touch me!” she said as other passengers tried to neutralize her to help the victim.
“I’m not even touching her hair b****!” Perry added, while gripping the other woman’s hair.

As Southwest employees appeared to secure some sort of restraints on Perry’s wrists, the intoxicated passenger yelled, “911!”
“Yeah, I’m sorry! I didn’t want to sit next to a f**ing fat lady,” she said. “You guys are already past the point of no return. You’re already past the point of no return!” the traveler told those trying to help the victim.
Perry continued to berate the other passenger, a Brazilian native, who managed to maintain her composure instead of reacting to the aggressive meltdown.

The victim asked the passenger sitting beside her to ignore the aggressive woman.
“Don’t touch her,” the victim said. “Take your hands off of her.”
The man sitting next to her also insisted that they should stay calm and said Perry was “sick.”

The intoxicated passenger continued: “Look at this fat lady. Look at this fat a** b****. She can’t even, look, you can’t even see her stomach.
“It’s horrible. Look at her outfit. Look at this fat a** b****. Hilarious. You can’t even show your mouth because you’re embarrassed,” Perry added, referring to the woman’s face mask.

She also insulted a man who was holding her arms to stop her from hurting the woman.
“Shut the f*** up!… Sorry, I can’t hear you ugly a** f***ing dude who’s never gonna get laid again,” the rowdy traveler told him.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Black guy! My boyfriend’s Black so shut the f*** up. My boyfriend’s f***ing a Black guy, my boyfriend’s a Black, my boyfriend’s Black, my boyfriend’s a f***ing Black guy,” she continued amid her visible mental breakdown.

Perry then spat onto the woman she had body-shamed, after which another passenger tried to use the unhinged woman’s hair to cover her mouth.
“Miss, please, we’re not doing all that. We’re not doing all that,” one crew member told her, to which the rowdy woman replied, “Shut the f*** up!”
“Ugly a** b****. You never got laid in your life. Your boyfriend’s d*** is like two inches big – that’s embarrassing,” she said, addressing the victim.
“Oh, so sorry about your boyfriend. That’s horrible. That’s horrible.”

Having her wrists restrained, Perry fell to the ground and began violently kicking the victim.
“Shut the f*** up I can’t breathe. Nobody’s f***ing touching me! You’re not letting me go motherf***er. You’re corny as f***,” she said, lying on the ground.
“Can anybody do something, please?” one flyer could be heard pleading in the video of the incident.
When the victim said she couldn’t “get out,” the aggressive passenger continued to insult her, yelling, “Yeah you can’t get out! You’re f***ing fat as sh**.”
