A man was arrested at the Iceland Keflavík International Airport for wearing too many clothes.
 Ryan Carney Williams, who goes by Ryan Hawaii on social media, was travelling from Iceland to England by British Airways. He wore eight pairs of pants and 10 shirts, clothes that would not fit into his luggage, to evade excess luggage fee.
He was denied boarding for putting on too many clothes after going through security checks.
In a video posted by him on Twitter, airline staff asks if the police need to be called.

"Police were called to interfere and according to Hawaii they were violent towards him, using pepper spray and holding him to the ground," Mbl.is reported
He believes his treatment was due to racial prejudice.
