United Airlines is in hot water after disturbing footage showing a man being dragged off a Kentucky-bound flight, went viral this weekend.

An officer can be seen dragging a man through the aisle of UA flight #3411 in the disturbing footage while another passenger can be heard screaming in the background. According to reports, the passenger suffered a bloody nose during the struggle.

United Airline’s tweets suggest they called the authorities to handle the situation after unsuccessfully seeking a volunteer to give up their seat.

Apparently the unknown man didn’t offer to leave the plane because he is a doctor who needed to be at a hospital in the morning, the man who recorded the cellphone video wrote on Twitter.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a passenger be forcibly removed off a flight. A Black woman was removed from a Delta flight in December after she reportedly “refused to comply with boarding and baggage check procedures.”

United Airlines’ CEO Oscar Munoz recently responded to the incident.
