67-year-old Layne Arthur Lundeen made national headlines after he was arrested for being disorderly on the plane. Lundeen was said to have made misogynistic comments and racial slurs.
Lundeen was previously employed by Long Realty as a real estate agent and was let go following the incident.
Long Realty released a statement on its Facebook page stating that Lundeen was no longer with the company.
Long Realty is aware of reports concerning criminal charges filed against a former affiliated real estate agent arising from an incident that allegedly occurred during a commercial flight. Upon learning of the incident, Long Realty promptly ended its affiliation with the individual. The individual is no longer associated with or authorized to represent Long Realty in any capacity.
The conduct described in the reports is wholly inconsistent with the professionalism, integrity, compassion, and respect for others that Long Realty expects from those affiliated with the company. We expect those associated with our company to uphold those values, and we have no tolerance for conduct that so clearly falls short of those expectations. Our focus remains on serving our clients and community in accordance with our values.
Our thoughts are with the passengers, crew members and others affected by this incident.
