Battered United passenger has concussion, 'likely to sue' | Bangkok Post: news


Photos from videos taken by fellow passengers showed the plight of Dr Dao as he was 're-accommodated' by United Airlines and Chicago aviation police. CHICAGO - The United Airlines passenger dragged from a plane in Chicago in an incident that sparked international outrage and turned into a corporate public relations nightmare suffered a concussion and broken nose and will likely sue, his attorney said on Thursday. "For a long time airlines, United in particular, have bullied us," Thomas Demetrio told a news conference in Chicago, outlining the potential causes of action they may pursue against United and the city of Chicago. Chicago runs the airport and the city's department of aviation employs the three officers who dragged Dao off the plane. "Chicago employees should not be doing the dirty work for the friendly skies airline," Chicago Alderman Edward Burke said at the meeting, adding Dao's civil rights had been violated.
