Three women from Long Island, New York, are facing federal charges for allegedly kicking and punching Delta Airlines employees after they weren't allowed to board a flight, the U.S.

Their morning flight was delayed for more than four hours, and during that time the women allegedly ordered nine alcoholic drinks, according to a letter U.S.

Upon arriving to their gate, agents reported that Zavala "was having difficulty walking" and Nixon smelled of alcohol, Breon's letter said.

Several Delta employees allegedly determined that the trio shouldn't board the plane because of such behavior, and notified the women that they could rebook their flight later that same day. .

The women allegedly refused to leave the jetway and began yelling and cursing at the security officer who came to the scene for assistance, according to Breon's letter.

The security officer fell to the ground and all three women allegedly hit and kicked him.

And when the officer tried to leave for help, the women allegedly "pulled him back by his vest, tearing the vest apart," according to Breon's letter. .

The flight's crew eventually pulled the officer away, but the three women "continued to scream and strike" the employees.

The security officer and flight gate agent were both treated at a hospital for their injuries and have not returned to work since the attack, Breon's letter states.

The women were arrested for assaulting airline security and released on bond.
