The moment a wild brawl erupted between an unruly passenger on board a Jetstar flight and police officers has been captured on camera.
The 26-year-old man, who has not been identified, had been on a Sydney flight bound for Melbourne when he reportedly started acting abusively towards members of staff about 4pm on Saturday.
His aggressive behaviour escalated before the plane had taken off and members of staff are understood to have asked the man to exit the aircraft.
He refused and Australian Federal Police officers were called.
When officers boarded the plane the man continued to act aggressively and became embroiled in a tussle with officers.
He is then alleged to have lashed out and head butted one policeman twice before attempting to bash other officers.
The officer who was head butted was knocked to the ground for about one minute
