Katrina Alspaugh arrested for refusing to wear mask, yells ‘Let’s go Brandon’

A woman was arrested at a Las Vegas airport last weekend after allegedly refusing to wear a face mask aboard a plane then screamed “Let’s go Brandon” and other obscenities as she was taken into custody, a report said.

Police said Katrina Alspaugh first caused a scene Sunday at the security checkpoint at McCarran International Airport when she tried to punch another passenger who complained she wasn’t wearing a face covering, KLAS reported.

Alspaugh then boarded an Allegiant Air flight — only to be removed by an airline worker because she allegedly wouldn’t comply with a federal requirement to wear a face mask while on the plane, the report said.

Police said as officers were escorting Alspaugh off the jet bridge, she yelled “Let’s go Brandon” — a bizarre substitute for the “F–k Joe Biden.”

Alspaugh was charged for violating airport regulations.
