A woman was booted from an airliner Tuesday night after she refused to get off when told she couldnt fly with her emotional support squirrel, authorities said.

Police were called to help remove the unidentified passenger from a Frontier Airlines flight from Orlando, Florida, to Cleveland, but the woman and her animal got off when officers arrived. Orlando police told HuffPost in an email that the incident was resolved without further trouble.

The passenger noted in their reservation that they were bringing an emotional support animal but it was not indicated that it was a squirrel, the airline said in a statement. Rodents, including squirrels, are not allowed on Frontier flights.
