Former NFL player Sergio Brown, who was arrested in connection to his mother’s death, fought with Mexican officers on a plane in Mexico City while they tried to extradite him back to the United States, according to a video shown by TMZ.
Michelle Williams, a resident of Lakeside Calif., and her family were on their way back when Brown started talking out loud and fighting with two officers at his seat on a plane headed for Tijuana.
His reaction was captured on video after the plane’s captain threatened to have him removed.
“I have my passport. Why are they grabbing me?” he said to the passengers. “They’re kidnapping me again. I’m from Chicago. My flight was [to] Colombia. Why am I going to Tijuana?”
“Let me go!” he yelled. “This is kidnapping! Cameras, please! Kidnapping!”
“This is a kidnapping,” he repeated. “They’re in uniforms.”
Williams, the woman who recorded the video, told KFMB that it took an hour and a half for officers to get Brown off the plane. “It was crazy just to hear him start yelling that he was being kidnapped, that these men were kidnapping him. And I’m just thinking, what is going on?” she recounted.
Brown was arrested in San Diego a few days ago after re-entering the U.S. from Tijuana. He’s currently being held without bail in San Diego and is awaiting extradition to Maywood to face the murder charge.

Police said his mother Myrdle Brown’s body was found on September 16 in a creek bed near the home she shared with her son in the Chicago suburb of Maywood. The 35-year-old had been missing for the past month and posted on his Instagram account that his mother’s murder was fake news.
