WHEN a man going on holiday to Jamaica was told his flight was overbooked and he could not board, he threw a tantrum.

The man bellowed at check-in staff before stripping naked in anger at being told he could not get on the US Airways plane at Charlotte Douglas International Airport in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Wednesday morning.

“I seen (sic) some people running and I was wondering what they was running from and people were standing there snickering, so I walked over and (an airport employee) told me the man was angry over the Jamaican flight,” a witness Sherry Ketchie told WBTV.

Ketchie said the man sounded furious and was bellowing at airline check-in staff.

“He had his clothes on, at that point, and then he started standing there with his arms crossed and hollering at the lady at the desk,” said Ketchie, who posted the pictures on her Facebook page.

“He stood there for a moment and then started talking off his clothes. I ain’t never seen nothing (like that) in my life.”

Ketchie said the man did not say anything as he stripped off.

“More people started getting back because that’s when security started surrounding him, waiting for Charlotte-Mecklenburg police to come in,” she said.

“I was not expecting to see nothing like that, I’ve never seen nothing like that at Charlotte Douglas airport. Never,” she said.

“And that’s when I got out my phone and started taking pictures.”

The woman said the man was standing in the concourse naked for about an hour.

US Airways directed media over the incident to the Charlotte Douglas International Airport, who in turn directed media to Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police. As of last check, police said here was no report from the airport.
