The Delta flight's 8-hour delay irritates the nerves of passengers; the police called to break up the fight

The Port Authority police officers at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City reportedly had to intervene after a fight broke out on a Delta plane which was delayed about eight hours Thursday.

One passenger, Juan Andres Ahmad, tweeted that the pilot had "no idea" where the ground crew was, and while the passengers waited for them to get no food or water, Fox 5 New York reported.

"This has gotten out of control – there are people fighting against each other and it has become both verbal and physical," tweeted Ahmad. "The police are on the plane! Complete chaos! I understand delays and we all want to be safe , but this is not about the weather, but about how Delta has handled it.

Local journalist Glenna Milberg was on the plane at that time, tweeting a video about "a small sample of the rising chaos."

Delta said no passengers were involuntarily removed from the flight, which finally departed for Miami at about 23, eight hours behind schedule, FOX 5.
