Angry airline passenger punches kid who wouldn’t turn off cell phone
Read Time:42 Second
Next time the flight attendants ask you to turn off your cell phone before takeoff, you better do it … because if you don’t, the 68-year-old guy sitting next to you just might punch you. Russell Miller, accused of doing just that, was arrested upon landing last week and charged with misdemeanor battery. He got into a fight with a 15-year-old boy on a Southwest flight from Las Vegas to Boise, CNN reports, and allegedly smacked the kid on the shoulder when he refused to turn off his iPhone.
Fellow passengers say the boy was playing games and listening to music at the time, KBOI2 adds. Miller “felt he was protecting the entire plane and its occupants,” a police officer says. “He punched him so hard there was a mark on the teen’s arm.”

i agree
Well, there are two sides to every story. But I have to agree with some of the passengers that the guy should not be punching people on the airplane. Call one of the flight crew and let them handle it.
I agree Bill. Only the flight crew should be punching passengers 🙂
