*Porsha Williams experienced a tense moment while traveling through Las Vegas on Nov. 16. The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star was escorted by law enforcement off a Delta Airlines flight at the airport following an altercation with another passenger.
Williams’ lawyer, Joe Habachy, told PEOPLE that the incident stemmed from a verbal attack. “She was verbally assaulted by an irate and unhinged passenger without provocation,” he said, noting that the individual made false claims that contradicted multiple eyewitness accounts.
“As with any incident occurring aboard an aircraft, federal authorities are required to conduct an investigation involving all parties to determine what, if any, offenses occurred,” Habachy added.
The FBI’s Atlanta office confirmed to TMZ that it is reviewing the situation to determine whether federal charges could apply. Delta Airlines also said two passengers were involved, and the flight continued to Atlanta without further disruption.

Williams added that she feels mentally strong and empowered, writing, “I love me again & I love you all! No more survival mode—we will thrive!! We are kicking depression’s ass!!”
