Historic Nightmare: Denver Broncos most famous iconic legend has been brutally damaged in an aircraft” after he tried to make a…..
Terrell Davis, the running back for the Denver Broncos, was removed off an aircraft over the weekend while wearing handcuffs, an incident he called a “disgusting display of injustice and deplorable treatment.” Davis disclosed that he was arrested and led off a United Airlines flight from Denver to Orange County on Saturday by federal authorities in a lengthy Instagram post on Monday. The Hall of Fame rusher said that the reaction was the result of a harmless conversation with a flight attendant.
As Davis described it, the 51-year-old’s son had asked a flight attendant for a cup of ice during beverage service. Davis said the flight attendant either did not hear the request or chose to ignore it, so Davis “lightly tapped” the United employee on the arm to get his attention. At that point, Davis says the flight attendant became furious.
“He shouted ‘don’t hit me’ and left the cart to hurriedly approach the front of the plane. I was confused, as were the passengers in front of me who witnessed the exchange,” Davis wrote. “I thought nothing of it other than this particular employee was incredibly rude and blatantly wrong in his accusations of me hitting him. I did not see or interact with him further for the duration of the flight.”
When the plane landed in Orange County, Davis says the pilot asked all passengers to remain seated. Several federal law enforcement agents then boarded the plane and handcuffed Davis. After Davis was “humiliated” and escorted off, the agents believed his side of the story and “profusely apologized.”
“The FBI agents and local authorities proceeded directly to my seat and immediately placed me in handcuffs, while seated and without any explanation, in front of my wife and children while the entire flight of passengers watched in silence. I was then removed from the flight while being recorded by multiple passengers as I was paraded off the plane in handcuffs by the officers,” Davis wrote.
I was — and remain — humiliated, embarrassed, powerless, and angry. During questioning, it was rightfully determined by the agents that this flight attendant was inaccurate in his accusations and the agents profusely apologized even offering to support me and my family in any way possible.”
Davis said he has not heard from United Airlines and that his legal team is pursuing action. You can read his full account of the incident:
