最近,美國航空(American Airlines)處置一起乘客鬧事事件(unruly passenger)。警察執法非常暴力,視頻被乘客拍下,傳到網上。不過這次輿論站在航空公司和警察一邊。唯一被吐槽的就是警察的電棍質量太差,用在乘客身上,一點效果沒有。
下面用這條新聞學學英語,順便看看航空公司的處置策略:
要點總結:
1、The man was accused of inapproriately touching another woman passenger while boarding.
登機時騷擾其他女乘客
2、The flight attendants tried to defuse the situation and asked the man to move to another seat.
客艙機組化解衝突,將這名乘客換到其他座位
3、The man screamed my people were building civilizations while you monkeys were still in trees.
乘客大喊,我的先人創建文明的時候,你們還在樹上當猴子
這時,機組叫警察來幫忙
4、The other passengers were frustrated. One woman even tried to bribe the man to get off the plane on his own accord.
鬧事乘客的話引起大家不滿。一名女乘客甚至出錢,讓鬧事乘客下機,換一個航班
5、Orders from the police didn't work either. Passengers seated in front of the unruly passenger were taken off. The back half were stuck and witnessed the situation.
警察先是命令鬧事乘客下機。沒有效果之後,讓坐在飛機前半部分的乘客下機,準備武力制服。而坐在後面的乘客沒法下機,正好藉此機會拍視頻。
我們為視頻製作了英文字幕,其餘部分大家可以藉助字幕觀看。該事件航空公司處置如何,歡迎在下面留言。下面是機上乘客拍下的視頻。心理素質好的話,可以謹慎觀看。
