Woman Kicked Off Plane Heading To Manchester

Lenny Mardarski claims he was stabbed with a pen by the woman sitting next to him.

The Southwest Airlines flight was ready to take off when the incident took place. Lenny had fallen asleep, and was awoken by the woman sitting next to him as she was poking him in the arm with a pen.

She told authorities that she had "had enough" of his loud snoring.

Witnesses say Lenny Mardaski got pretty loud himself once he woke up.

According to an article at WMUR.com:

"Witnesses said Mardarski was loud in his reaction to the pen poke, but those close to him said his snoring was loud as well.

“He said, ‘She stabbed me with a pen!’” said Charlie Ray. “He just kept saying he was sleeping and ‘She stabbed me with a pen!’”

“The police came on and they escorted three people off the plane and then the two guys got back on – [a] younger gentlemen and [an] older gentlemen -- and the lady was escorted off didn't get back on,” said Steve Wolf."

I think my favorite quote from the same article is from a friend of Lenny's as he described what took place.

“Chucklehead here fell asleep on the taxi on the runway. His arm brushed onto her....she went nuts....started stabbing him with a pen and he screamed really loud like a little girl,” said Sutton."

 

I feel for Lenny or 'Chucklehead' as he's apparently know to his friends. Always good to know your buds have your back, especially on TV.

As for the woman, she was place on a later flight. it's not known whether or not she'll face charges.
