Fight breaks out on plane over carry-on luggage space minutes before takeoff in Colombia

A dispute between two passengers over space for carry-on luggage escalated into a violent fight on a plane at El Dorado Airport in Bogotá, Colombia, just minutes before takeoff.

According to the Daily Mail, a man became angry when another passenger tried to place his carry-on luggage in the overhead compartment. In the video, the man can be seen leaning over the seat in front of him and grabbing the passenger sitting there. The seated passenger tries to push him away, but the man continues to hold on to him for at least eight seconds.

Another passenger intervened, grabbing the man by his hood and pulling him back. According to the Daily Mail, the passenger who was attacked is a Mexican national. Two passengers then threw the attacker into the plane’s aisle. The fight continued for 20 seconds, until the passenger who had been attacked got up and sat in a row of empty seats.
