Flight delayed after married couple brawl

Flight delayed after married couple brawl

A plane was delayed in China after a brawl broke out on the tarmac between a married couple.

The China Eastern Airlines flight was almost fully boarded when the couple started having a major argument at the bottom of the stairs leading onto the plane.

The couple, who per Mirror Online are in the midst of a divorce, soon got physical with each other, wrestling on the ground, swinging fists and ripping clothing.

The flight from Kunming to Chengdu was delayed by around half an hour while the couple fought it out.

Kunming City authorities were eventually called and the pair were pulled apart, before being denied access to the plane.

The couple, per Mirror Online, have apparently been arrested and are being investigated.
