ATLANTA -- A disabled man is under arrest following an altercation with police at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

Tamara Sorman says she and her husband, Bradley, who has a neurological disease similar to Lou Gehrig's Disease and can barely move his arms, were in Atlanta on business and returning home. She tells WSB-TV she asked a skycap to help her with a self-help ticket kiosk when the insults began.

"What's wrong with your hands? Are you disabled too?" she says the skycap questioned her.

Bradley Sorman then asked for a supervisor. The police were called to the area, but their accounts of what happened greatly differ.

Tamara Sorman claims, "This policeman tripped him, threw him on the ground with blood flying everywhere, handcuffs him. It's horrendous that anybody, anybody would treat this man like this."

The police report the officer was simply defending himself after Bradley Sorman used abusive language and bumped the officer twice.

"There were about 4 witnesses to this incident," Maj. Shawn Jones of the Atlanta Police tells WSB-TV. "The traveler bumped the officer twice."

Tamara Sorman says her husband can barely move his arms because of his disability.

"My husband didn't bump anybody, couldn't bump anybody."

Bradley Sorman was arrested and charged with obstruction and simple battery. He was given a $10,000 bond during a court hearing Tuesday.

"He has hit my husband in the face. Knocked, broken his beautiful teeth. Caused him to have 14 stitches in his jaw," said Tamara Sorman.

Part of the incident was caught on surveillance cameras, but the airport isn't releasing the video at this time.
