United Airlines Fires Flight Attendant Involved in Terrell Davis Incident
United Airlines has fired the flight attendant who accused Pro Football Hall of Famer Terrell Davis of assault during a flight earlier this month. The incident led to Davis being escorted off the plane in handcuffs by FBI agents after flying from Denver to California. The accusation was later revealed to be unfounded, as Davis had only tapped the attendant on the shoulder.
According to a report by TMZ, the flight attendant was terminated shortly after the incident. “A spokesperson for the airline tells us the steward — who the NFL Hall of Famer says embellished allegations against him during a July 13 trip from Denver to Orange County — was canned a short time after the incident took place,” the outlet notes.
Initially, United Airlines had announced that the employee was being temporarily removed from duty while the company conducted a further review of the matter.
