A 19-year-old woman flew into a rage after a TSA officer confiscated her apple juice at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport on Tuesday, elbowing, punching and biting three officers who tried to restrain her, according to a court document.
The woman, Makiah Coleman, is charged with counts of assault, criminal damage and disorderly conduct, according to a document summarizing the incident that was provided by Maricopa County court officials. Her bail was set at $4,500, and records indicated she remained jailed Wednesday morning.
A court commissioner referred Coleman to the Maricopa County public defender’s office to have an attorney appointed. The office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the case.The attack began shortly before 6 a.m. local time. Coleman had a ticket and was going through security at the airport’s checkpoint D, according to the court record. An officer took the apple juice, which is not permitted through screening, and Coleman began “ranting and raving,” the document said.
Coleman then grabbed a third TSA officer by the pony tail, according to the document, pulling her down toward the table while “striking her with hammer fist blows.” Another TSA officer tried to intervene, only for Coleman to allegedly swing her head down and bite the officer on the head. Only then was she restrained, according to the document.
