Looked up more information on this. Apparently the incident took place in Halibut Cove, Alaska.
The boat owner runs a local boat ferry concern and restaurant and does not seem to be happy about the seaplanes interfering with her business.
The seaplane had one pilot and
seven sightseeing tourists aboard.
US coastguard and local State Troopers are investigating.
The internet is outraged at her dangerous actions and her restaurant is getting flooded with 1 star reviews.
