A surprise visitor startled Spirit Airlines passengers at LaGuardia Airport on Monday when a raccoon suddenly dropped from a ceiling tile near the airline’s counter. Video footage captured the raccoon dangling from a cord before taking a dive to the floor, causing airline staff and passengers to scatter in alarm.

In the chaos, one person attempted to trap the raccoon with a trash can as others tried to keep their distance. The incident happened around 8 a.m., and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey confirmed the raccoon was safely removed. They’re now working with wildlife control experts to secure the area and prevent similar occurrences.

Spirit Airlines confirmed that no injuries resulted from the unexpected encounter. While LaGuardia recently underwent an $8 billion upgrade, the renovations did not extend to Terminal A, where the incident occurred.
