A woman who was banned from boarding a flight for appearing to be drunk led a cop on a wild chase through the airport in her motorized suitcase. Chelsea Alston, 32, then allegedly spit at an officer and defecated in a patrol vehicle.

Bodycam footage newly released by the Orlando Police Department shows an officer on a bicycle pursuing an intoxicated woman through Orlando International Airport.

Orlando police officer Andrew Mamone is shown backing up a Southwest Airlines gate agent who refuses to allow Alston on board a flight to New York. Alston argues that she waited to board the flight for a while.

‘You just need to go over to the terminal and sober up a little bit. Get another flight,’ Mamone says.

Alston claimed she had only two drinks, according to WKMG, which obtained court records from the April 2021 incident.

‘I don’t want no beef,’ Alston reportedly said. ‘I’m just trying to go home and enjoy myself.’

Alston then cursed at the cop.

‘F*** you! Suck my d***!’ she shouts, and then rides away on her suitcase.

Mamone appears shocked at the luggage’s speed, and hops on his bike for the pursuit.

‘We’re going to have a bike pursuing a suitcase in a minute,’ the cop says.

‘Oh man, that thing kind of goes fast,’ Mamone adds as some bystanders can be heard laughing.

Mamone finally catches up to the woman.

‘Follow me and we’ll roll out together,’ Mamone tells the woman, who then appears to spit at him.

Mamone and another cop then put her in handcuffs, but Alston appears to spit at again and hit an officer in the eye.

Alston says, ‘I only spit one time’, after being told to stop spitting.

She allegedly defecated in a patrol car and caused about $1,200 in damage, WKMG reported based on an arrest report.

Alston has apparently been charged with battery of a police officer and released from the Orange County jail on a $13,500 bond.
