Drunk passenger nabbed for knifing Hong Kong taxi driver after being woken at stop
HONG KONG, June 29 — A taxi driver was left injured after a drunk passenger allegedly lashed out with a knife for waking him at the end of a ride in Tai Kok Tsui, Hong Kong early this morning. Police told South China Morning Post they were alerted to the incident at 5.58am, after the 35-year-old driver was reportedly attacked when his cab reached the junction of Kok Cheung Street and Tai Tsuen Street. The passenger, a 31-year-old man surnamed Chong, had dozed off in the taxi during a journey from Yau Ma Tei. When the driver tried to wake him, Chong allegedly pulled a knife from his trousers and began swinging it. The cabby sustained a small cut to one of his fingers. Chong then fled towards nearby Li Tak Street, but the driver pursued him on foot and called the police. Officers equipped with helmets and tactical vests launched a search of the surrounding area. They eventually found the suspect in a hotel on Li Tak Street, roughly 200m from the scene of the altercation. A 40cm butcher knife was recovered from the hotel room. Police said Chong appeared to be heavily intoxicated at the time of his arrest. Both he and the taxi driver were taken to Kwong Wah Hospital in Yau Ma Tei for treatment. Chong has been arrested on suspicion of wounding. The case is being investigated by the Mong Kok district crime unit.

Entitled plane passenger's drunk meltdown over being forced to sit next to woman she deemed 'too fat'
An entitled plane passenger was caught having a drunk meltdown after she was forced to 'sit next to a f***ing fat lady' on a cross-country flight. The 32-year-old repeatedly pulled another female passenger's hair, spat in her face and kicked her on a Southwest Airlines plane at LaGuardia Airport in New York en route to Kansas City early Monday morning. Several clips also showed the woman screaming at the unidentified passenger over her weight and clothing. The 'intoxicated passenger' who donned long black hair, a red baseball hat and an all-black outfit, appeared to get verbally confrontational with the other woman just moments before things turned physical. She then gripped the other woman's hair and screamed: 'Shut the f*** up, don't f***ing touch me!' Several people then stepped in, including two Southwest employees and another passenger, seemingly trying to de-escalate the situation. A female employee then called another staff member on the phone and repeatedly asked the woman to let go of the other passenger's hair, but she refused to and flashed a cunning smile. 'I'm not even touching her hair b****,' the unhinged passenger replied while she hung onto the woman's hair and grinned. A traveler who recorded the intense scene told Daily Mail the woman was so aggressive she even 'knocked the glasses off the southwest employee.' 'When she first started saying stuff I called out "why don't you be nice?" She turned around and called me ugly a few times and that I could never get a boyfriend or have sex. I looked at her and said I've been married for almost 20 years lady,' the passenger recalled. After asking other staff to notify police of the incident, she shouted: '911!' with her arms held behind her back. Still holding the woman's hair, she yelled: 'Yeah, I'm sorry! I didn't want to sit next to a f**ing fat lady.' While people continued to try to get her to let go of the woman's hair, she shouted: 'You guys are already past the point of no return. You're already past the point of no return!' Once she finally released her hand from the woman's head, her hands were placed behind her back as a Southwest flight attendant stepped in and secured some sort of restraints on her wrists. 'Look at this fat lady. Look at this fat a** b****. She can't even, look, you can't even see her stomach,' she babbled on as the woman she was talking about sat in front of her. 'It's horrible. Look at her outfit,' she added. 'Look at this fat a** b****. Hilarious. You can't even show your mouth because you're embarrassed,' she went on, referring to the woman's face mask. The rowdy passenger then looked towards a man, also wearing a face mask, who was sitting next to the woman she repeatedly harassed. She screamed: 'Shut the f*** up!... Sorry, I can't hear you ugly a** f***ing dude who's never gonna get laid again.' Her comments only proceeded to intensify as she shouted at a man trying to help employees restrain her. 'Oh, I'm sorry black guy! My boyfriend's black so shut the f*** up. My boyfriend's f***ing a black guy, my boyfriend's a black, my boyfriend's black, my boyfriend's a f***ing black guy,' she said as she appeared to slur her words and stumble over the chair. She then picked her head up and spit directly at the woman she was seen berating, getting saliva all over her face. Those holding her back then tried to move her away as one employee appeared to use the woman's hair as a way to shield her spit from spreading. 'Miss, please, we're not doing all that. We're not doing all that,' the staffer said as she replied: 'Shut the f*** up!' She continued to throw around profanities and talk poorly about the woman and the man sitting next to her. 'Ugly a** b****... You never got laid in your life. Your boyfriend's d*** is like two inches big - that's embarrassing,' she said. 'Oh, so sorry about your boyfriend. That's horrible. That's horrible.' The crazy passenger then fell to the ground, planting her face in the aisle of the plane as she complained: 'I can't breathe.' She then suddenly flipped around on the ground, shouting: 'Shut the f*** up I can't breathe,' as her hair covered her face. Her legs then flew in the air as she continued cursing while passengers and staff looked on. 'Nobody's f***ing touching me! You're not letting me go motherf***er. You're corny as f***,' she continued. The woman she was harassing then said she couldn't 'get out,' to which she replied: 'Yeah you can't get out! You're f***ing fat as sh**,' as she kicked the lady. The woman and man then got out of their seats while staff dealt with the woman in the aisle. She appeared to cooperate for a moment, but then she started yelling and kicking the employees and other passengers who tried to help. The passenger was eventually escorted off the aircraft on a gurney and was not allowed to get back on the flight, a spokesperson with Southwest Airlines told Daily Mail. The Port Authority Police Department was called around 1.10 am to a report of an 'intoxicated passenger,' a spokesperson with the Port Authority Police Department told Daily Mail. She was transported to a hospital for evaluation before being taken into custody at the New York City Department of Correction for aggravated assault. 'We commend our Team for their professionalism during the incident,' Southwest said.

Shock moment ‘drunk' passenger hauled off TUI flight by cops after PUNCHING cabin crew & screaming ‘plane's going crash'
THIS is the shocking moment a drunk maniac was arrested after going berserk and allegedly smacking an air hostess in the face. Footage shows the madman being restrained on board a TUI plane from Spanish holiday hotspot Gran Canaria to Birmingham in the early hours of Tuesday morning. 3 3 The boozed-up brute was led away in handcuffs after appearing to strike a cabin crew member in an hour-long fit of rage, which left air hostesses in tears. Flight attendants even attempted to use a 'restraint kit' to subdue the holidaymaker, but were unable to bring him under control even after the plane had landed. It forced terrified crew members to scream for help while 220 passengers, including young kids, watched on. Dramatic clips obtained by The Sun shows the mayhem unfold as cabin crew frantically run through the aisles pleading for the emergency services. A witness told The Sun: 'It all kicked off just before 1am as we were landing in Birmingham from Las Palmas. 'When they slammed the brakes, he was shouting that the plane was going to crash. He started shouting at the hostesses and got up to go to the toilet compartment. 'The stewardess told him to sit back down, which he did, but then he got back up for the second time and went to the same place. 'There was a lot of screaming and shouting between him and the crew, and then he punched an air hostess in the nose. 'One minute he was calm, then he was throwing blows. He was extremely erratic.' A number of passengers tried to intervene to help the air hostesses as the situation became violent. The witness continued: 'Air hostesses were screaming for police in panic - they were shook up and crying. 'People had to tell them to stop screaming because it was scaring the kids - it was a nightmare.' Clapping and cheering rang through the plane after West Midlands Police officers finally got onboard. A witness told The Sun: 'The intoxicated guy put his hands up and said, 'Arrest me'. "But then he resisted arrest." The drunk male was forced down onto other passengers by cops who quickly surrounded and cuffed him after he resisted arrest. The drunken yob was finally led away from the aircraft in handcuffs and chucked in a police van before passengers were able to exit, an hour after the ordeal began. We previously revealed how a British woman was dragged off a flight after allegedly assaulting passengers and "making a bomb threat". And last year a "flight from hell" did a U-turn after just 36 minutes in the air, when a "mass brawl" broke out between holidaymakers. TUI and West Midlands Police were asked to comment. 3
