A father in his 30s has died just a day after he had to be restrained during a midair clash with his girlfriend and fellow passengers, according to People. The British man, Callum Kerr, was in critical condition when his Jet2 flight landed at England’s Manchester Airport on Monday and was rushed to a hospital. Kerr, a boxer, had gotten into an argument with his girlfriend on a flight from Cyprus, prompting staff and passengers to intervene to separate them. The situation escalated when Kerr headbutted a passenger and threatened others around him. The plane landed around 2 a.m., and authorities boarded the flight to discover that Kerr was no longer breathing, so he was rushed to a hospital. Police confirmed to The Daily Beast that Kerr died the day after on the afternoon of June 23. “We know passengers and aircrew worked to detain the man to bring the incident to an end. Our detectives are investigating this to understand the full circumstances,” Chief Superintendent Mike Allen added in a statement sent to the Daily Beast. “We are aware that a customer has sadly passed away, having been taken to hospital earlier this week. We would like to offer our sincere condolences to the customer’s friends and family. As investigations are ongoing, it would be inappropriate for us to make any further comment at this time,” a Jet2 spokesperson told The Beast when asked for comment.
