Naomi Campbell is learning to deal with her anger – while on London’s Heathrow Airport, the British supermodel model did not throw a mobile phone but instead reportedly chose to spit at a police officer who dared to upset her.

Thursday’s incident at Heathrow Airport – which concluded with Naomi Campbell being escorted off a U. S. bound flight – comprised of an upsetting situation over luggage which determined the supermodel to use her own saliva as a projectile, reports E! Online.

Campbell had boarded a flight to Los Angeles to attend a memorial service when she was informed that one of her pieces of luggage was missing. This infuriated her and police had to escort a “ranting and screaming” Campbell from British Airways’ first-class lounge at the airport’s newly opened Terminal 5, British paper The Sun reveals.

She was arrested on suspicion of assaulting a police officer and later released on bail.

“She was released on bail shortly after midnight, and is due to return on bail,” Scotland Yard said in a statement, reports Reuters UK.

This is not the first time when luggage has been misplaced at Terminal 5 but it does appear to be the first time that someone spits out of frustration at the nuisance – at least the first time a celebrity does so.

Hundreds of flights have been cancelled and tens of thousands of bags have gone missing at Terminal 5, according to Reuters, which have resulted in losses amounting to 16 million pounds for the terminal.

Campbell’s spokeswoman explained that the 37-year-old supermodel learned that one of two bags she had checked in had gone missing and that “BA decided to resolve this by insisting she leave the flight and then called the police to forcibly eject her from the flight.

“She was taken to the Heathrow Police Station and released on police bail. So far as we are aware, BA have still failed to offer any explanation as to why her bag went missing at Terminal 5,” the spokeswoman added.

Campbell has a well publicized history of violent outbursts that culminated with her being sentenced to perform community service last year. After throwing a mobile phone at a housemaid when she could not find a pair of jeans, Naomi mopped floors for five days and was ordered to attend anger management classes.

Mobile phones have been Naomi’s weapon of choice in a number of other incidents.
