It was a confrontation between a Minnesota man and TSA agents at the Denver International Airport…. after the man had already flew from Minnesota to Denver.
Kahler Nygard flew on Spirit Air with no incident. But after arrival in Denver, TSA agents met Nygard and demanded that he be screened.
The TSA agent, who identifies himself as Alex Grossman in the video, demands Nygard’s boarding pass.
Nygard points out that he no longer has it (since most airlines take it from you as you board the plane, you don’t need it once you are on-board), which stumps Grossman to the point of taking out his flip phone to call someone and say that “the passenger says he doesn’t have his boarding pass… and is pretty objectionable… and he’s filming me.”
Nygard repeatedly asks if he is being detained and what the problem is, but the agents do not answer — at least not in the recording.
Finally, Nygard walks away, saying that if he’s not being detained, he’s leaving. The agent threatens to call Denver police, but does not specify what law Nygard is accused of breaking.
Nygard told Denver media that the Denver police never contacted him following the incident.
