The American Airlines passenger who was put in a headlock and kicked off a plane for yelling an anti-Semitic slur at a flight attendant has been pictured.

Shail Patel, 29, was arrested after his filmed outburst on flight 2506 from Tampa International Airport to Philadelphia on Tuesday.

The Florida resident appeared intoxicated — with bloodshot eyes and smelled of alcohol — before unleashing a hateful argument on his fellow passengers, according to the affidavit seen by New York Post.

He allegedly yelled: ‘F*** you blue-eyed white devils, I’m taking this plane down with all you morf***s on it.’

Patel allegedly began behaving inappropriately as soon as he boarded the flight, screaming and cursing at the passengers.

The other passenger, a white man dressed in a blue hoodie, decided to intervene and escort the other man off the plane

The situation escalated when Patel allegedly punched another person in the hand and face and spat on them

Video of the altercation, which was posted in three parts on X (formally known as Twitter), showed the moments leading up to the man being escorted off the plane.

He can be heard repeatedly calling a flight attendant a ‘c**k’.

Patel also shouted: ‘I’m trying to get to my homeland and you all have made it harder for me to get to my homeland.’

In one video, another flyer, who claimed to be an officer, is seen putting Patel in a headlock after a struggle.

The eruption causes the flight to be delayed by 30 minutes.

In a statement, American Airline told DailyMail.com: ‘Prior to the departure of American Airlines Flight 2506 with service from Tampa (TPA) to Philadelphia (PHL), law enforcement was requested for the flight due to a disturbance in the cabin involving a disturbance customer.

‘We thank our team for their professionalism and apologize to our customers for the inconvenience.’

Patel now faces two counts of assault and one count of disorderly conduct and remains in jail as of Friday on a $2,150 bond.

According to his arrest records, he is self-employed and works in IT.
