FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): An argument at the Fort Wayne International Airport between a passenger and a flight attendant ended with a flight delayed and five people booted from the plane.

Robyn Rogers posted a video of the incident to her Instagram account. Fort Wayne’s NBC reports started when the Skywest Airlines flight attendant asked her to put her phone in airplane mode before takeoff… then stood next to her and waited for her to do so.

That led to an argument, and eventually, Rogers and four other passengers who defended her were removed, and the flight was delayed an hour.

SkyWest says they’re now investigating allegations of discrimination. She claims the incident happened due to her race.
