Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport.
Moscow - TASS
The Armenian Embassy confirmed on Wednesday that a man who was run down on the tarmac by a plane that was going to take off at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport is an Armenian citizen.
Earlier reports said late on November 20, a Boeing passenger airplane bound for Athens taxying along the runway at Sheremetyevo Airport hit a 25-year-old man, who died instantly.
"We can verify the information on the death of Armenian citizen Albert Yepremyan, born in 1993. He died during an incident on the runway at Sheremetyevo Airport," the embassy in Moscow said.
A source familiar with the situation told TASS that Yepremyan, who had been deported from Spain, was heading to Armenia through Moscow. He had started a brawl onboard the plane and was later detained by Russian police officers upon landing at the airport.
The troublemaker was taken to a police station at the airport and was charged with an administrative offense, according to the source.
Later, the police officers escorted Yepremyan to a terminal bus, which was due to take him to a plane en route to Armenia’s capital of Yerevan. However, the man escaped from the police and dashed towards the runway, where he was run down by a plane traveling from Moscow to Athens.
