The woman, later identified as 25-year-old Camila McMillie from Birmingham, Alabama was flying to New York City with a layover in Miami. Shortly before boarding her connecting flight, McMillie’s children went to the restroom. After waiting for them to return for an extended period of time, the gate agents had no choice but no close the doors so that the flight could take off on time. After missing her flight, McMillie became enraged and started destroying the Kiosk beyond the gate agent’s desk. Her reaction was captured from nearly every angle you could imagine by onlookers and posted to social media platforms including TikTok and Twitter.
