The scene, which has since garnered significant attention online, began with a woman screaming at a security officer to stay away from her as she stood behind the Delta Airlines counter.
The video was posted on TikTok by a bystander who was reportedly just trying to get their boarding pass. The unidentified woman can be heard shouting, “Get away from me! Don’t trust cops, only trust firemen!” before running from security.
In her frantic attempt to flee, the woman leapt from behind the counter and darted through the check-in area.
One police officer, trying to catch her, slipped and fell flat on his face during the chase, adding to the chaotic scene.
Throughout the video, the woman continues to scream, at one point yelling, “Get the f—k away from me, I will kill you!”
Despite her attempts to outrun the officers, she eventually returns to the check-in counter, grabbing a Delta ticket agent in what appeared to be an effort to hide behind him.
However, security officers quickly caught up and apprehended her.
