admin Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 A Delta Air Lines passenger who was allegedly attacked by a fellow passenger’s emotional support dog in 2017 is now suing the airline after dealing with injuries to his face and upper body, according to a report. The alleged attack occurred in June 2017 aboard a flight from Atlanta to San Diego, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. According to the lawsuit, passenger Marlin Jackson of Alabama “bled so profusely that the entire row of seats had to be removed from the airplane.” Alexander Shunnarah@ShunnarahInjury Delta Air Lines passenger attacked by dog obtains legal representation from Alexander Shunnarah & Associates. http://ow.ly/RbgR30crdrI 3:02 PM - Jun 8, 2017 See Alexander Shunnarah's other Tweets Twitter Ads info and privacy The lawsuit claims Jackson suffered “severe physical pain and suffering,” including the loss of sensation in areas of his face, and required 28 stitches and other medical treatment in order to recover. “His entire lifestyle has been severely impaired by this attack,” the lawsuit claims, according to the Journal-Constitution. A police report lists the dog as a “chocolate lab pointer mix,” that was owned by Ronald Mundy Jr. of North Carolina, a Marine who claimed the animal was issued to him for support. The dog was pulled away from Jackson after growling at him but then broke free and mauled Jackson’s face, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit claims Delta “took no action to verify or document the behavioral training of the large animal,” such as assuring it could behave on an airplane, the report said.
