A man on a Ryanair flight traveling from Barcelona to London refused to sit beside a black woman on Oct. 19, hurling abuse at her as other passengers attempted to stop him, according to footage posted by a passenger.

The video above of the incident, posted on Facebook by passenger David Lawrence, shows the man shouting racial insults at the woman and telling her, “if you don’t go to another seat, I’ll push you to another seat.”
