A confrontation at the airport involving Representative Dan Crenshaw, his dog, and United Airlines staff has sparked controversy. The incident began when a United Airlines agent attempted to take Crenshaw's dog and personal property. Following this, Crenshaw had a discussion with Phillip Griffith, the Vice President of Airport Operations, which escalated to the point where Griffith challenged Crenshaw's account. Upon reviewing the footage, however, it was confirmed that Crenshaw's account was accurate. The situation further intensified when Griffith reportedly lunged at Crenshaw. The altercation included verbal threats and commands to 'shut up' directed at Crenshaw by Griffith. In response to the incident, Crenshaw publicly criticized United Airlines.
