Curious incident: A man exposes himself in the middle of the flight and pees on a sleeping passenger!

USA - Excuse me? An unbelievable incident occurred during a United Airlines long-haul flight : a man dropped his pants and urinated on another passenger!

Jerome Gutierrez was on his way from San Francisco (USA ) to Manila in the Philippines when this bizarre situation occurred.

As SFGATE reported, about four hours after takeoff, a fellow business class passenger got up, stood in front of Jerome and began urinating on him.

His stepdaughter Nicole stated that Jerome was asleep before the incident, but woke up during it and looked at the man, puzzled.

"He thought he was dreaming," Nicole said.

After a brief moment of realization, he realized he was "soaked from the stomach down [to his feet] with this man's urine."

After the incident, the flight attendants gave him a pair of pyjamas to wear for the rest of the flight - a full eleven hours.

The crew also asked Jerome not to approach the pee offender as they feared it could lead to a violent confrontation.

"They put the needs of the airline ahead of my stepfather's health. I am so disgusted and shocked at how United Airlines handled this! This is a biohazard and the plane should have turned around to fix this problem," his stepdaughter complained.

The urinator later apologized to Jerome and desperately asked him to refrain from taking legal action. The reason for his actions is still unclear.

United Airlines confirmed that there had been a "passenger disturbance" on board the flight. The urine offender was subsequently banned from further flights by the airline.
