According to Sgt. Derek Green with the Burbank Police Department, one man was arrested as a result of the incident.
Officers booked Chaz Cable, a 37-year-old Lancaster man, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.
According to a statement from Southwest, flight 2530 had come in from Dallas, Texas, in the middle of a trip to Oakland when it landed in Burbank for a layover. The airline said three people were involved in the fight rather than two.
“We’re grateful to our employees who quickly reacted to break up a fight involving three customers,” according to the statement. “One customer had minor injuries, but was able to travel onward. We have no other reports of injuries.”
It’s unknown who the other two people involved with the fight are or how it started.
Cable is currently being held in lieu of $50,000 bail.
