A video showing an airport baggage handler violently tossing guitar cases onto the tarmac at Los Angeles International Airport is sparking serious outrage online. This clip, which quickly went viral, is shining a spotlight on larger concerns about how airlines might be handling passengers’ valuable belongings.
According to Fox News, the video reportedly shows an airport worker in a bright orange vest roughly throwing multiple guitar cases from a luggage cart onto the ground. College student Nick Ruiz, 21, filmed the incident after arriving in Los Angeles, spotting the scene while walking through Terminal 4. He said the “whole situation felt wrong,” which is why he started recording out of concern for the instruments.
