Southwest Airlines says it is “deeply disturbed” by allegations from a female passenger who claims that a male passenger masturbated next to her on a flight.

Elly Shariat, who runs a PR agency, was flying from Las Vegas to Philadelphia on Tuesday when she says one of her seatmates exposed himself as the passenger from hell. Her tweets about the situation subsequently went viral. 

“We are deeply disturbed by the behavior described by Ms. Shariat, and we have contacted her to address her concerns and offer our apologies,” Southwest said in a statement to HuffPost. “Our internal reports indicate that the Crew did not witness this incident during the flight — and it was not until the plane landed that they were made aware of the situation. Our Crew then apologized to Ms. Shariat and assured her that they were not previously aware of the situation. This type of behavior on a flight would never be tolerated by any of our Employees.”

A spokesperson for Philadelphia International Airport confirmed for HuffPost that Shariat filed a police report about the alleged incident and that the FBI is now handling the case.

Yikes! Made the mistake of reading the comments on the article, lots of idiots asking why she didn't press the call button and otherwise criticising her behaviour. It doesn't mention if they arrested the guy once she reported it on the ground so I am guessing that he got away with it. :(
