Moment raging woman hurls computer at Frontier Airlines staff ‘after missing flight from Chicago O’Hare Airport’
An irate woman was so angry after missing her Frontier Airlines flight that she threw a computer at staff during a fight in the departure lounge.
The female customer, who was quickly dubbed “Karen” by Internet users, became aggressive with the Frontier Airlines front desk after allegedly missing her flight from Chicago O’Hare Airport last week.
In film material Karen is caught at the airport by a bystander waiting to check in at the front desk. She quickly jumps over the luggage scale to confront the group of Frontier employees gathered there.
She then punches one of the workers, after which another places himself between her and the rest of the packed workers.
A Frontier employee reached for a blue bin – normally used to store items being scanned by security – in an attempt to throw the bin at the Karen, but was stopped by two other coworkers.

As the man who was originally standing between her and his coworkers turned around, Karen grabbed a computer from behind the counter and threw it at him.
She then threw the monitor face down on the desk and walked back to the check-in desk.
TikTok user Cinn (@cindyhalasova), who observed, filmed and posted the entire event on social media, revealed that the post was removed due to “violent and graphic content.”
Cinn revealed more details about the incident in the comments of a recently posted TikTok.
She said Karen was late for her flight and missed it, and she took it out on the Frontier Airlines employees.
Frontier pilot Seymour Walker, 45, is arrested Saturday at George Bush Intercontinental Airport on charges of domestic violence.
‘[Chicago Police Department] “It took a while to get there, so they took the train, but they had her passport… She was definitely in trouble now,” Cinn said.
Meanwhile, a second incident involving Frontier Airlines took place, in which a pilot was pulled from a plane at a Houston airport for assault.
Seymour Walker, 45, was thrown from a plane at George Bush Intercontinental Airport on Saturday night.
He was arrested shortly after the plane he was flying arrived at the gate on an outstanding domestic violence warrant.
No further details about Walker’s alleged crimes have been released.
A subsequent Frontier flight was cancelled as the airline struggled to accommodate his sudden departure from their schedule.
