Man kicked off flight as new hair transplant goes wrong leaving his scalp leaking

There's having a bad hair day, and then there's this.

Last Monday (19 August), Eugenio Ernesto Hernandez-Garnie, 27, boarded a flight from Miami to Las Vegas with his partner Yusleydis Blanca Loyola, 32.

Trouble commenced as the couple boarded the plane when crew members noticed that Hernandez-Garnier was bleeding from his head and had a 'bloody bandage' around his wound, Local 10 reports.

Miami-Dade police explained in a press release how Hernandez-Garnier was asked by the flight attendants to clean up the blood and replace his bandages.

The man told them, however, that he did not have any clean bandages.

After that initial interaction, the crew asked the passenger 'multiple times' to get off the plane due to concerns about 'body fluid contamination' caused by a hair transplant as well as his general health.

Hernandez-Garnier and Loyola allegedly refused to disembark the plane at this point, with them reportedly saying: "If they could not fly, no one else can either."

The couple were repeatedly warned they would be arrested for 'trespassing', according to the police, but they both decided to stay on the plane nonetheless.

"After a brief moment of resisting to be handcuffed, they were subsequently placed under arrest," the police report states.

Officials went on to state that because the couple refused to leave the plane, every passenger on board was forced to return to the terminal.

Once they had all boarded again, the flight was delayed.

After their arrest, the couple were taken to the Jackson West Medical Centre in Florida, where Hernandez-Garnier's was examined.

They were later taken to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center for questioning.

Hernandez-Garnier and Loyola are now facing charges of trespassing after a warning and resisting an officer without violence.

American Airlines has since confirmed the incident, stating the late Monday night flight did not take to the skies until early on Tuesday (20 August) morning.

In a statement provided to The Independent, a spokesperson for the airline said: "During boarding of American Airlines flight 1858 on Aug. 19 with service from Miami (MIA) to Las Vegas (LAS), two customers became disruptive and were non-compliant with crew member instructions.

"Law enforcement responded and removed both customers from the aircraft.

"We thank our crew members for their professionalism and apologise to our customers for the inconvenience."
