A Woman Got Caught Destroying An American Airlines Counter In Miami & Security Took 'So Long'

Airports can experience a hectic time during the holidays due to the influx of travelers looking to fly back home and spend some time with their loved ones.

Most recently, one of these frantic moments was experienced at the Miami International Airport after a woman was caught on video destroying an American Airlines counter and chasing an airline’s employee.

Several TikTok videos posted by users witnessing the situation show a woman yelling at the gate while she stood behind the counter and threw the monitor and several other things. A clip from another angle also shows her chasing an American Airlines employee.

The comment sections of these social media posts are flooded with people expressing their thoughts. Some were shocked, others wrote funny comments, and many questioned the authorities’ "slow" response.

"I’ve worked at the airport for 20 years. I have never seen it this bad. There are gate calls all the time now. People are out of control," one person wrote on a TikTok clip.

"FL always comes through on extra for the holidays," another user chimed in.

"Good God. Where’s security?" a TikToker questioned the police’s response on one of the viral videos.

According to CBS Miami, the woman was arrested and later identified as Camila McMillie.

Investigators said McMillie was traveling from Alabama to New York City and had a connecting flight in Miami, where she lost her plane. The officers added that the woman was with a gate agent when her two children walked away to use the restrooms. After noticing the minors were not with her, she started screaming and told the airline employee to find them.

McMillie is facing charges of aggravated battery, disorderly conduct, and criminal mischief, CBS Miami reported. Her bond was set to $4,500.
