A man on the border airline must be bound by other passengers after a violent outbreak caused the plane window to rupture.
The incident occurred within about 20 minutes of the 4856 Frontier flight, which departed from Denver International Airport and headed to George Bush InterContinental Airport in Houston on Tuesday, February 4.
Passenger Victoria Clark told Storyful that the man quickly became frustrated when the woman in front of him asked for a seat change. He started yelling and kicking her in the seat, then attacking the window.
According to Storyful, “He then immediately stood up and started slamming the window and kicking it. He started waving his bloody knuckles as people tried to stop him.”

“Then he continued to punch the window until one of them grabbed his arm and twisted it behind him. He was able to break the first floor of the window before he stopped.”
In a video taken by Clark, several passengers restricted men in the aisle with zippers and shoelaces.
“He’s physical,” Tanner Phillips, one of the people involved, told ABC13 Houston. “I picked him up and put him on the floor. It took a few guys to put his arms behind him and secure them.”
According to Flightaware, the broken plexiglass did not impair the safety of the aircraft and landed in Houston in time around 11:10 p.m.
A spokesman for the Houston Police Department (HPD) told USA Today that law enforcement responded to the call from “aggressive” passengers and met with the plane upon arrival.
Officials talked to passengers, and border airlines refused to sue.
HPD said the FBI is continuing its investigation.
