According to Spirit Airlines, the incident happened on Sunday while the passengers were trying to board flight 646 from Detroit to Atlanta. The dispute was about the size of a carry-on bag.

When agents asked passengers to check that their carry-on baggage was the correct size before boarding, the passengers became belligerent, airline officials said.

A new video shows a passenger punching an employee. That’s when a woman packs a punch while holding a child.

One employee was taken to hospital and another employee, who hired a lawyer, also received medical care.

Murphy and Williams will appear in court again in March.
