An airport public safety officer was “asked to assist with a frustrated passenger” when Texas Senator Ted Cruz missed his flight out of Montana on Sunday, a Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport official told the Daily Mail.
Cruz’s exchange with airport staff, which garnered national attention and became a punchline for late-night talk show hosts, was recorded by a bystander and posted on Reddit.
Scott Humphrey, the airport’s deputy director, confirmed the incident to the Daily Mail.
“One of our Public Safety Officers (PSO) was in the ticket lobby and was asked to assist with a frustrated passenger at the United ticket counter (which is not unusual),” Humphrey told the media outlet. “The passenger had missed the check-in window for his flight and re-booking options were limited out of Bozeman due to Spring Break.”
Humphrey also said the officer did not know the man involved was Cruz until after the incident.
The video does not capture what Cruz was telling airport staff. The person who posted the video later said that his “phrasing with ‘accosting’ was a bit hyperbolic” and said he did not believe Cruz was “directly verbally abusing airline staff.”
Talk show hosts, like Jimmy Kimmel, compared the incident to Cruz’s trip to Cancun when Winter Storm Uri in 2021.
Cruz has not publicly commented about the incident as of Tuesday. He returned to Washington D.C. in time for the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of federal judge Kentanji Brown Jackson.

Police in Corpus Christi arrested a 25-year-old woman who they say tried to give away her 2-week-old baby to strangers over the weekend.
Investigators said Yessenia Cardenas was walking down the 2300 block of Comanche Street at 10:30 p.m. on Sunday and asking bystanders to take her infant.
One of those witnesses took custody of the child and immediately called 911, police said.
A medic unit conducted welfare checks on the infant and Cardenas, and police said the mother appeared to be under the influence of an unknown drug.
The infant was then placed in the custody of Child Protective Services.
Police said Cardenas was booked on a charge of abandoning or endangering a child, a state jail felony.

The Texas Rangers targeted vehicle and currency seizure logs late last year in connection with an investigation of Real County Sheriff Nathan Johnson, search warrants released this week by the Texas Department of Public Safety confirm.
The four warrants, released to the KSAT 12 Defenders this week by the Texas Department of Public Safety following a ruling from the Texas Attorney General, show that the Rangers raided four properties in early December associated with Johnson’s office.
Two of the locations were described in the records as storage properties in Leakey and Camp Wood.
Among the items targeted by the Rangers for seizure were vehicle impoundment inventory sheets, currency seizure paperwork and body camera and dashboard camera footage dating back to April 2017, the same month Johnson was first appointed sheriff.
The Rangers also targeted computer equipment and receipt paperwork from two bank accounts as part of their search, records show.

A man was shot multiple times as he sat on a stairwell outside a West Side apartment complex Tuesday morning, according to San Antonio police.
The shooting was called out just after 6 a.m. in the 400 block of Micklejohn Walk, not far from North Hamilton Avenue and Lombrano Street.
An SAPD sergeant at the scene said the man, 29, was sitting at the bottom of the stairwell when another man walked up and fired about eight or nine times at him from the sidewalk, hitting him several times.
The shooter then walked closer to the man and shot him two more times, police said.
The shooting victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds including a couple to the head. He was taken to the hospital with life-threatening wounds.
The shooter, believed to be in his 20s, ran away from the scene. SAPD deployed its EAGLE helicopter in the search for him, but he has not been located.
The motive for the shooting is unknown. Police said the shooting victim did not live at the complex.
The shooting remained under investigation Tuesday.
