A woman traveling in South Carolina found herself under arrest after allegedly physically attacking her husband in an airport when she found explicit photos on his phone.

Paula Barbour, 55, was charged with one count of third-degree domestic violence after police say she kicked her husband twice in the legs during an argument at Charleston International Airport, WCSC-TV reported.

Police say they responded to a call of an "active domestic" dispute at guest services around 2:50 p.m. on Dec. 21, and officers had to break up a physical argument between Barbour and her husband.

The argument, according to a police report, started after Barbour saw indecent photos on her husband’s phone.
