According to The Daily Mail, when the woman was denied boarding, she began attacking an agent behind the check-in desk while throwing luggage and computer systems.

The woman, who noticed spectators, then started tossing items at them until she finally climbed on top of the counter and began screaming before security took her away.

“The client was denied the trip, and she became rebellious and physically abusive with the ground staff — so it was necessary for airport security and police to intervene,” said Emirates in a media statement.

It’s not clear where the woman was going or if she was released from police custody.
