Police have released details of what happened between Brittney Griner and a provocateur at the airport this past weekend. 

Griner was confronted by Alex Stein at the Dallas airport on Saturday. Stein questioned Griner about her thoughts on the United States, following her imprisonment in Russia.

USA TODAY had some details on what happened:

The person accused of subjecting Phoenix Mercury center Brittney Griner to "excessive harassment" at a Dallas airport on Saturday tried to push his way through team personnel to confront the WNBA star, according to police records obtained by ESPN.

Police said Alex Stein, a right-wing social media personality, approached the Mercury as the team walked the concourse of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport prior to the team's flight to Indiana.

Griner's teammates said that "wild remarks" were shouted in her direction.

Police were reportedly unable to find Stein following the incident. According to the report, he was not found to have a flight at the airport. 

"The airport's Master Control Room told authorities Stein "walked to the lower gates, connected with a female passenger and entered the Skylink Train heading to Terminals B & D,'" per USA TODAY.

The Phoenix Mercury have since announced that they're making changes to their travel plans.
