Fight or flight?

A furious airline passenger was captured on wild video unleashing a flurry of punches on an airport worker over an apparent check-in delay dispute.

The video, taken on Nov. 10, shows the enraged passenger thumping the worker from behind in front of the check-in counter at Terminal 1 of Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) in Malaysia, according to a report by Viral News. 

The staff member can be seen cowering down to fend off the attack and then turns and squares up to the irate passenger, who’s wearing a green colored top and army green pants.

But then the passenger slugs the worker with a vicious left hook, knocking the helpless worker backwards and shocking onlookers. 

Security guards then step in to separate the pair and a war of words ensues between the two before they are ushered away from the area, per the report.

KLIA District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Azman Shari’at said in a statement that the fight stemmed from a disagreement.
