(WEAA)—Parker Stinar, the lawyer for former NFL star Terrell Davis, has released video of the July 13th incident on a United commercial flight.
The Pro Football Hall of Famer said he had tapped a flight attendant on the arm which caused the employee to shout “don’t hit me” and hurry toward the front of the plane.
Once the plane landed, federal officers boarded, and placed him in handcuffs, Davis said.
In a social media post, he stated the incident was shocking and traumatizing.
“This video confirms the harrowing tale of multiple law enforcement agents, including the FBI, boarding the plane and apprehending a shocked, terrified, humiliated, and compliant Mr. Davis in front of his wife, Tamiko, minor children, and more than one hundred passengers. The rationale behind the United Airlines employee's deceitful or inaccurate report extends far beyond a mere ice request or innocent tap on the shoulder. This is why we will be filing a lawsuit because only through legal proceedings can we uncover the truth and make United Airlines answer for the systemic shortcomings that culminated in this traumatic incident, causing irreparable harm and enduring suffering for the Davis family." - Parker Stinar, Managing Partner, Stinar Gould Grieco & Hensley
