TAMPA (FOX 13) - A passenger scheduled to board a JetBlue plane to San Juan, Puerto Rico Wednesday caused a scene and was arrested in the terminal, according to officials with Tampa International Airport.

A witness took video of the outburst, including the moment the man took down his pants, and later had to be restrained by officers.

Airport officials said the man, identified by TIA officials as Ralph Rodriguez Hernandez, became upset around 2 p.m. because his flight was delayed. TIA said during the tantrum, Hernandez threatened to kill a gate agent from JetBlue.

He was going to PR. Should have insisted he get on the plane. Barking.

At this point, I believe he has the right to remain shaddap.

Vienna sausage. So that’s what he was showing off when he dropped pants.

His legal status? Puerto Rico is U.S. territory.

Back in the day the airline would ask if you wanted the smoking or non-smoking section. Now they ask if you want pants or non-pants section.

When I read that the plane was heading to San Juan, I immediately suspected that idiot mayor.

Just met a couple on this cruise who’s little daughter had her EAR but off by a Rottweiler, while dragging the girl all around the yard,
Rottweilers are not much better that Pit Bulls, and should NEVER. Be a service. Animal!

The plane was bound for Puerto Rico. That doesn’t mean he’s Puerto Rican.

It doesn’t say he is Puerto Rican. It says the plane was bound for Puerto Rico

That, I don’t know. Looked on Fakebook for “Rafael Hernandez Rodriguez”, and they’re a dime a dozen...must be hundreds.

It would’ve been bad if that guy had actually boarded the plane...and then went off. Flying’s no fun anymore.
