Man, woman arrested at Florida airport after luggage dispute delays flight, injures deputies
ABC News ^ | 2/27/2019 | Morgan Winsor

(snip)The incident unfolded as Ida Shafir, 67, and her companion, Nick Bogomolsky, 61, were attempting to board their Delta Air Lines flight at the Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport on Tuesday morning.

Airline agents announced over the loud speaker that passengers would have to check all carry-on luggage at the gate, free of charge, in order to board the New York-bound plane because it was full. But Shafir "refused to check [her] luggage" and caused "a commotion at the gate,"(snip)

The manager "felt the safety of the plane and the other passengers was in jeopardy if he would allow Bogomolsky and Ida to board," so he told them they wouldn't be allowed to board and needed to leave the jet way(snip)

The airline agents contacted authorities for assistance after the pair "refused to leave." Two deputies from the Broward County Sheriff's Office arrived on scene and tried to deescalate the situation. One deputy explained to Shafir she needed to leave or she would be arrested, and Shafir dared the deputy to arrest her, the affidavit said. The deputy attempted to handcuff Shafir but she "got out of control and resisted arrest(snip)

The struggle went to the ground and Shafir bit the deputy on his left forearm, drawing blood. Then Bogomolsky pushed the second deputy out of his way and tried to grab a firearm from the holster of the deputy who was on the floor with Shafir, the affidavit said. As the second deputy attempted to regain control of Bogomolsky, the two ended up on the ground as well, causing the second deputy to injure his right knee and his right thumb(snip)

Shafir continued resisting arrest until multiple deputies arrived on scene and were able to handcuff her. Bogomolsky was taken into custody.

Shafir, who lives in Brooklyn, was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting arrest with violence and trespassing. Bogomolsky, who also lives in Brooklyn, was charged with robbery, resisting arrest with violence, trespassing after warning and obstructing police, according to the complaint affidavit.

"robbery"?

Surprisingly without injury for trying to grab a weapon or for the scuffle described in the article.

I can understand her panic. Her makeup was in one of those bags, and she might have needed the black felt marker to touch up her eyebrows.

Probably. Or maybe they are just normally belligerent people used to bullying their way in life. In normal circumstances people like that get their way all the time. Just not wise to try it at the airport.

What was in her bag that she wouldn’t just check it and take her seat to begin with?

By way of one of the former Soviet states, I'm guessing. The Russian Jews in Brooklyn are not to be trifled with.

“By way of one of the former Soviet states, I’m guessing. The Russian Jews in Brooklyn are not to be trifled with. “

That was my first thought when I read this——they poured into my area in the early 80s-——rude,arrogant people.

It's almost always South Florida.

That is where the New Yorkers and New Jersey nut cases flock to when they are trying to escape the liberal high tax states.

And you misspelled it, it's Foriduhhh. And Debbie Whatshername Schultz is a representative to this south Floriduhhh community.

Dang... I flew out of that same airport on Delta the day before. I always miss out on the excitement!

I’m wondering, what the hell did she have in that bag she refused to check? I’m betting, CASH... or, drugs.

I’m guessing that what was in her bag will soon be common knowledge.

maybe medical supplies? who knows...something she might want to see...sure they LOOK like they look...but who knows how they were bullied by the gestapo delta hoods and then the AUTHORITIES!

I (we) weren’t there but there are always three sides to what happened (the truth), your version - what you remember, my version - what I remember, and what really happened!
