'Get out of my face': Fight at US airport sees gate agent suspended

A Spirit Airlines vendor at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport has suspended a gate agent involved in a violent altercation that went viral online. An airport police report identifies the agent as Emmanuel Sullivan of Grapevine and the woman as Ayriana Davis of Fort Worth. “Our vendor at DFW has suspended the agent. Spirit Airlines does not tolerate violence of any kind, and we are working with local law enforcement to investigate this matter,” the airline wrote in a statement. The airport’s criminal investigations team declined to comment. The video posted to Twitter shows Sullivan yelling at Davis in the airport, telling her not to touch him. The video has more than 10 million views as of Monday morning. “You touched me first and then you got in my face,” Sullivan said in the video. “Don’t ever invade my personal space.” “Get out of my face!” Davis screamed in response. She later said cameras saw the altercation and that the agent touched her. Davis shoved Sullivan and called him homophobic and racial slurs, then reached out to hit him. Sullivan responded by running at her and hitting her as bystanders intervened. In the police report, Sullivan said Davis exited the jet bridge and started yelling at him, saying there was no seat for her on the plane. He told her to get in line to speak to an agent, then took her boarding pass after she cut in line and became uncooperative, the report said. Story has more.<br/>
