Wife, Man With Bloody Head Arrested While Boarding Miami Plane: Report

FLORIDA — A Las Vegas couple who traveled to Miami for surgery, including a husband with a bloody head who had just had hair transplantation, was arrested Tuesday after allegedly refusing to deboard a plane, reports say.

Passengers notified flight attendants that Eugenio Hernandez-Garnier, 27, was attempting to board the American Airlines flight with bandages and blood on his blood, WFLA reported.

Hernandez-Garnier was reportedly given the chance to clean up the blood and change his bandages but allegedly told the attendants he did not have new bandages.

The attendants were worried about potential contamination and Hernandez-Garnier's health, the New York Post reported.

His wife, 32-year-old Yusleydis Blanca Loyola, also had surgery in Miami, the New York Post reported, citing a video in Spanish that has been shared on TikTok.

After being accused of not leaving the plane when asked, reports say the couple was charged on suspicion of trespassing after a warning and resisting an officer without violence and was taken to Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.

American Airlines released the following statement, per WFLA:

“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 crewmember instructions. Law enforcement responded and removed both customers from the aircraft. We thank our crewmembers for their professionalism and apologize to our customers for the inconvenience,” a spokesperson said.
