Bareknuckle Boxer Dies on Flight | Manchester News

A bareknuckle boxer, 35-year-old Callum Kerr, died after a violent incident on a Jet2 flight from Cyprus to Manchester. He allegedly assaulted a passenger and refused to sit as the plane prepared to land, leading to him being restrained by passengers and crew. Police boarded the aircraft upon landing and found him unresponsive; he was taken to hospital but died the next day. The inquest revealed he had been drinking and was denied further alcohol. CPR was administered, but it was too late. Multiple investigations are underway — police are probing the flight incident, the Independent Office for Police Conduct is reviewing officer conduct, and Jet2 is conducting its own internal review. The coroner awaits the post-mortem results to determine the cause of death. Kerr’s family, who describe him as a devoted father and kind man, are being kept informed as the case unfolds.
