An Indian origin man was arrested after he allegedly attacked a fellow passenger and attempted to 'choke' him during a mid-flight brawl on a Frontier Airlines flight from Philadelphia to Miami this week.

The arrested man was identified as 21-year-old Ishaan Sharma.

He was taken into custody immediately after the flight reached Miami International Airport.

In the video, Sharma and the victim, who was identified as Keanu Evans, were seen exchanging blows while other passengers asked them to stop the fight.

Sharing details about the in-flight brawl, Evans told WSVN: "What I hate is that the video doesn’t capture what started the whole thing, you know?"

He said the video did not show the reason which erupted the fight.

“He was doing some, like, dark laugh like, ha ha ha ha ha. And he was saying things like, you, you puny mortal man, if you challenge me, it will result in your death,” said Evans.

Evans said he informed the flight attendants about his activities when he went to the toilet.

The attendants asked him to use the button for assistance and he did so.

“He kept threatening me with death.” said Evans. “That’s what made me get up and press the button above me and I just turned around and I looked at him and I responded to him. A lot was going on, and immediately he just got up and he puts his forehead on my forehead like he was challenging me.”
