An Iowa man was removed from a flight Tuesday at Myrtle Beach International Airport after cursing out the flight attendant over not storing a bag under his seat.

Nicodimus Muhamad Coles, 27, of Cedar Rapids, was arrested by Horry County Police after he was removed from the American Airlines plane. He was charged with breach of peace and booked into the J. Ruben Long Detention Center. He was released Wednesday on a $200 bond, according to online booking records.

Police were called to gate A3 about 6:30 p.m. about a person who was going to be removed from the plane, according to an incident report.

When police located Coles on the plane, he told officers that a situation happened between him and a flight attendant over a bag not being under the seat, adding that things got out of hand, the report said.

Coles was told he had to get off the plane because the captain wanted him off and the captain oversees the plane. Coles proceeded to yell in a loud voice, “bunch of (expletive) racists,” the report said. The man was surrounded by other passengers.

Police advised Coles to watch his mouth. Coles replied that “he was a grown man” and to not “ tell him what to say.”

As Coles passed the flight attendant while walking off the airplane, he told her, “you’re divorced right and I can see very much divorced,” the report said.
