BRIEF: Texas man arrested after fight on airplane at O'Hare

Aug. 06--A Texas man was arrested at O'Hare International Airport and charged with battery and resisting arrest after a fight broke out on a plane, according to police.

Adam Kealing, 31, of Austin, Texas, was charged with three counts of resisting arrest and one count of battery causing bodily harm.

Kealing was involved in a fight with a 52-year-old man on the plane Wednesday night, police said.

The man had minor injuries, police said. Kealing was taken to Presence Resurrection Medical Center for an unrelated medical issue, then released into police custody, authorities said.

An officer injured his hand during the arrest and was treated and released from a hospital, police said.

Kealing was due in court later this month, according to Officer Ana Pacheco, a Chicago Police Department spokeswoman.
