On tonight's UAX 6468 DEN-CPR flight a passenger was repeatedly asked by the FA prior to push-back to turn off his cell phone. The passenger loading bridge had already been pulled back with only the airstairs in use. After being told numerous times by the FA she advised him that he would not be flying with them tonight and needed to deboard the plane. Pax refuses and tells her he's not getting off.

Denver P.D. were called to assist and two uniformed officers arrived to escort the pax off the plane. 30 seconds after boarding the plane, one of the officers was ejected down the stairs by the pax and out come the billy clubs. Pax and the two officers continued to fight in the galley with many swings of the stick in use for a full 20 minutes until 3 more officers arrived and were finally able to cuff him and get him off the plane.

Pax was eventually restrained in a gurney and transported to a local hospital due to his head being split open in a couple of places. FA was too upset to continue and a replacement was brought in.

Flight left late after the cleanup from the blood splatter.
