Viral footage surfaced this week showing an unidentified woman wearing a sleeveless sweater, a gold necklace, and a large Afro hairstyle being arrested on a Spirit Airlines plane after she lost her cool before the plane took off.

The TikTok video dated March 23 shows several Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officers confronting the suspect as the plant sat on the tarmac ahead of takeoff.

There is still no clear reason as to why the officers were called, but as soon as the clip starts, it becomes apparent that she was acting erratically and resisted arrest.

"I can walk out on my own. Why are you doing that ... Why are you acting like I'm a rascal?" she can be heard saying. "Let this go. Can I do that with freedom? All I care about is freedom!"

Other passengers also filmed the incident.

When one officer tells her she is under arrest, she responds, "That's fine. I've been there before."

The woman then turned around to look directly into a passenger's cellphone camera, which was livestreaming the interaction.

Then, as if this story wasn't wild enough, she tried to stand up and contorted her face wildly.

"I've f***ing been there before," she screamed while gyrating her body. "This s*** hurts my elbow, it's hurting my wrist."

The woman then proceeded to say, "I can't breathe," the very words George Floyd said as he was dying.

Meanwhile, a flight attendant was heard over the plane's intercom telling everyone they would need to "deplane the aircraft," prompting a loud collective groan.

Commenters took to the post to speculate on what could have prompted the outburst.

"That's [an] evil spirit in her possession happening right in front of everyone," one person commented.

"How did she get past airport security??" another asked.

"This is really sad," a third wrote. "I hope she found some help and it comforted her."

Both the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police and Spirit Airlines did not immediately respond to requests for comment on what the woman was initially to be arrested for.
