Four passengers have been charged following two alleged mid-air brawls that saw a window get smashed

Four passengers have been arrested following two alleged mid-air brawls that prompted an emergency landing during a flight from Cairns.

Australian Federal Police (AFP) and NT Police confirmed charges were laid during an unnamed flight from Queensland to the Northern Territory on Thursday evening.

“The AFP was called to attend an incident on a flight from Cairns to Groote Eylandt, which had caused the flight to be turned around, on Thursday, April 20,” an AFP spokesperson told news.com.au in a statement.

In a video of part of the incident, a group of rowdy passengers can be seen standing near the aisle where one of them allegedly raises a bottle above their head seemingly to strike another passenger.

When the first alleged incident broke out, it prompted the flight to turn back to Queensland where a woman was charged.

“A female passenger was removed and charged with disorderly behaviour on an aircraft, common assault and failing to comply with safety instructions by cabin crew,” the spokesperson said.

They look like Aborigines. They have a terrible problem with alcoholism in addition to the usual impulse control problem.

It was probably the Blackstone Bordeaux - a refined peppermint flavored Burgundy.

I wish pilots could execute unruly passengers. They can be armed, now let’s see them shoot the idiots.

When I first visited Australia in the mid 90s there was not a single black person to be seen. The only crime was the usual drunk Aboriginal or some “Bogans” who would get in to a scrap.

It with sadness reading about how violent Melbourne and Sydney have become with the importation of third world trash people for the sake of diversity. And especially seeing how one of the most fierce fighting people so easily turned over their entire lives to their government.

From now on I will refer to the bLM section of people as Toons. Thanks to Eddie the Detective from Roger Rabbit. The same applies to idiots of the leftard section of the insane party.

It is what comes to my mind when the cartoon characters go nuts, then Dumbo comes to the window.

Flippin’ Toons, always being driven insane by white folks.

Why are their faces blurred? It was in a public area. No expectation of privacy.

these are not your typical American minority.....we can't just lump everybody together based on skin color, IMO anyway.....

eg....dark Indians are not Africans or African Americans....

Hot lead flying around a few inches from thousands of gallons of jet fuel isn’t real safe.

Maybe a airlock that can be used to dispose of any unruly passengers........................
