Beckham Removed From Flight
NFL free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was removed from a Los Angeles-bound American Airlines flight Sunday morning at Miami International Airport after refusing to comply with safety protocol.
Officers were notified of a medical emergency on an American Airlines flight around 9:30 a.m. Sunday. The flight crew grew concerned for a passenger, who was identified by police as Beckham, as they tried to wake him to fasten his seat belt. He appeared to be coming in and out of consciousness prior to their departure, but fearing that Mr. Beckham was seriously ill, the attendants called for police and fire rescue.
Upon the officers arrival, the flight crew asked Mr. Beckham several times to exit the aircraft, which he refused early on but in the end offboarded the plane.
