Three people hospitalised
The original poster of the video shared that the incident took place after the plane landed at Chicago¡¯s O¡¯Hare International Airport. As the attendants tried to control the situation, they attempted to pacify the passenger by telling her that the flight was ¡°landing.¡± At that point, the situation escalated as an attendant was heard shouting, ¡°Sarah, step back.¡± However, the passenger became even more combative as the attendant repeated frantically, ¡°Step back.¡±
At the end of the video, other attendants are seen rushing in to help their colleagues. According to the outlet, the Chicago police were called after a ¡°disturbance¡± was reported on Flight 476. United Airlines issued a statement afterwards, ¡°A disruptive customer on a flight from San Francisco to Chicago was removed by law enforcement upon landing on Sunday, and one member of the flight attendant crew was taken to a hospital for evaluation.¡±
After the incident, three people were taken to a nearby hospital though no fatal injuries were reported. Per the outlet, an FBI investigation was also launched to look into the incident further.

I had a guy jump as we were landing on a Delta flight and run towards the front of the plane. Three guys grabbed him. While the stewardesses yelled. Get back in your seat!
