After landing in Miami, the local police arrested Berry.
According to Forbes, Frontier Airlines said that an unruly passenger “made inappropriate physical contact with a flight attendant and subsequently physically assaulted another flight attendant,” forcing staff to restrain him. The airlines also said that the flight attendants involved in Berry’s case were “relieved of flying” and placed on paid leave while the incident is investigated.
