Two employees of Republic Airways have been terminated after a video showing them hitting each other on the jetway at a Denver airport was shared online.

In the nine-second clip, taken from surveillance video and reportedly originally shared on FlyerTalk, a male employee is seen charging a female employee who slaps him and turns away. The man then punches her in the abdomen and slaps her in the face.
