As an airport restaurant employee tried to restrain her, the woman, who identified herself as "Goddess Venus," stabbed him in the head and face with a pencil. She also bit his forearm, according to reports. Her bizarre behaviour continued even after that. When a woman offered her a coat to cover herself, Palma tried to snatch it and then ran off, shouting profanities. Stunned passengers watched in shock, with many recording the chaotic scene on their phones.
Palma then smashed a monitor at the airport and repeatedly threw her phone at another screen before hiding behind an emergency door. Security officials quickly intervened and took her into custody. As police handcuffed her, she made incoherent statements, saying she "wanted to be with the flowers" and was "in a forest."
During questioning, Palma admitted that she had not taken her medication that day. However, authorities did not disclose what type of medication she was prescribed.
She has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and was taken to a mental health facility for further evaluation.
