Passenger has huge clump of hair 'pulled out' in violent brawl on flight to Tenerife from Manchester

A woman claims she had a huge clump of her hair 'pulled out' and was left with a 'busted lip' after she was subjected to a violent attack on a flight from Manchester to Tenerife. The Ryanair flight bound for the Canary Islands had to make a swift landing in Portugal where a number of passengers were escorted off by police.

On Sunday evening (September 18) excited holiday makers saw their already delayed flight make a diversion and land in the Portuguese island of Porto Santo, where a small number of passengers were removed from the plane after becoming "disruptive". The M.E.N also reported how a 'drunken' man aboard the aircraft had 'urinated' on the seat.

Jade Parrott, 23, from Hyde, was one of the passengers on the flight. She claims a woman, one of those escorted off after the impromptu landing, had charged over to her before attacking her and 'pulling her hair'.
