A passenger on a United Airlines flight from San Francisco to Atlanta suffered a scorpion sting, multiple sources reported.
TMZ posted a photo of the scorpion, which fell from the passenger's pant leg after she was stung multiple times.
Natalie Noonan, a spokesperson for United Airlines, confirmed to USA TODAY that a passenger had been stung.
"After learning that one of our customers on flight 1554 from San Francisco to Atlanta was stung during flight, our crew responded immediately and consulted with a MedLink physician on the ground who provided medical guidance," Noonan said.
When the flight landed in Atlanta, she added, it was met by medical personnel.
"The customer was transported to a local hospital," Noonan said. "We have been in contact with our customer to ensure her well-being."
