Diddy's son Quincy Brown accuses JetBlue pilot of dragging him out over a carry-on bag
Diddy's son Quincy Brown has caught the media's attention as he blasted out against JetBlue Airways and their crew members who allegedly misbehaved with him. Reportedly, the skirmish took place between Brown and a pilot who refused to let his mini-sized bag inside the flight. According to Brown, his assistant was holding a "carry-on bag", which was not allowed inside the Sunday flight.
A representative for the airline confirmed to Radar that they were aware of an incident involving 30-year-old Quincy Brown and his "carry-on bag" during the boarding of a Sunday flight from Los Angeles, California to Newark, New Jersey. "We take any allegation against our crewmembers seriously and we are investigating, the safety of our crew members and customers is our first priority." they added.

Quincy said, "I'm not gonna get into the whole thing specifically, the pilot put his hands on me. Why? because my bag, which fits in my pocket, damn near they claimed it didn't fit." He narrated the entire scenario as he continued, "My assistant had my bag. I was on the plane already. They wouldn't let him bring it on. He gets on the plane. I let them know, 'I need my bag. That's not a bag to check. It has my medication. It has my personal [belongings]. It has my medication. It has my jewelry. It has literally everything that's my personal belonging. Nothing's in my pocket."
Quincy then said, "The pilot comes with my bag, tells me to get my diabetic medication out," he went on, clarifying that his medication was for anxiety and not diabetes. "He looks at me and says, 'You're not taking this bag on the plane.' I say, 'Yes, I am.' He said, 'No, you're not.'"
Apparently, this was when the situation got out of hand and became physical. According to Quincy, the pilot then "grabs me and drags me on the jet bridge. That's when I got my phone out. I didn't knock him out. Everything was just uncalled for. I've never had a pilot put no hands on me. Like, I don't know what you went through before that, I don't care. But the severity of me just trying to get my bag for my personal belongings became a situation where the pilot put his hands on me." Brown also tagged the LinkedIn profile of the pilot in his tweet and shared his experience with the airway.
