According to reports, the bodyguard of Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo compelled authorities in Spain to step in during an airport altercation.
According to the Spanish daily Menorca (via Daily Mail), Ronaldo's bodyguard grew impatient with having to wait when he accidentally set off an airport scanner with his bandaged finger.
The security guard allegedly yelled and gesticulated angrily before quickly passing through the airport security arch without being stopped.
The guard reportedly ignored warnings from airport staff that they would call the police.
He reportedly yelled that they could call anybody they wanted and that he had been a police officer in Portugal.
Police would eventually show up and settle the matter, but the jet took off 30 minutes later than expected.
The 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo was apparently simply a bystander who observed the incident and appeared "serious," but he stayed out of it.
The recent accident Ronaldo's Bugatti Veyron got involved in may be connected to the finger splint that triggered the VIP access scanner.
According to reports, Ronaldo's employee was the car's driver, raising the possibility that the security guard was responsible for the collision.
