Social media erupted after video of Vietnamese Doctor, David Dao being violently removed from a United Airlines flight on Sunday made its rounds.

He was forcibly removed from the flight to make room for 4 crew members who needed to be in Louisville. The man was left dazed and bloodied.

As expected, David Dao has launched legal action.

Lawyers for the passenger dragged from a United Airlines plane in Chicago filed an emergency request with an Illinois state court on Wednesday to require the carrier to preserve video recordings and other evidence related to the incident.

The filing with the Cook County Circuit Court likely presages an eventual lawsuit against United for the April 9 incident, where Dao was snatched from the seat he had paid for, and was dragged by his hands on his back off the parked plane, which had been bound for Louisville, Kentucky.
