A Southwest flight from Houston to Phoenix didn't make it very far (it actually never left the gate) after a passenger stripped completely naked and began walking up and down the aisle demanding to get off.
According to a witness, the woman even started banging on the cockpit doors demanding to be let off the plane.
The witness told ABC 10, "It was very weird that nobody kind of intervened. Everyone kind of recognized, I think, the situation and let her run on and on."
Upon the plane's return to the gate, a gate agent wrapped the woman in blanket and safely removed her from the plane. The Houston Police Department said no charges were filed, and the passenger was transported for a medical evaluation.
Southwest released a statement stating:
"Local law enforcement met Flight 733 from Houston to Phoenix Monday afternoon after it returned to the gate because of a Customer situation onboard. We apologize to our Customers for the delay in their travels and appreciate their patience as our Teams worked to get them to their destinations as quickly as possible."
