A video captured two men trading blows along the aisle of a landed plane over allegedly a reclining seat on a landed American Airlines plane on Sunday.
The flight from New Orleans to Austin arrived around 4:21 p.m. at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, but the two were not arrested after the incident, Austin Police told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Police didn’t go into detail about why they weren’t arrested.

“Stop it,” a passenger is heard screaming in the video posted to KXAN’s Youtube channel. “Do not hit me,” one woman yells.
“Just don’t hurt anybody else on the plane,” another passenger says in the video. (RELATED: Airline Passengers Are About 5% Fatter Now, And It Could Mess With Your Travel Plans)
One passenger said the incident began “over a seat that couldn’t unrecline,” according to KXAN.
The two men reportedly started harassing each other over the stuck seat, according to CBS Austin. “When the plane finally landed in Austin and the seatbelt sign was turned off, both men jumped up and physically started fighting each other,” a passenger told CBS Austin.
One man seen in the video attempted to stop the fight, apparently without success.
