Client '00:19:07:94:b9:70' which was associated with AP '00:1c:58:cd:32:e8', interface '0' is excluded. The reason code is '3'.

and why does it happen

that means that the client exclusion feature is enabled on your WLAN (enabled by default, per WLAN) and the particular user has failed 802.1X authentication 3 times. The exclusion policies are defined under "Security > Wireless Protection Policies > Client Exclusion Policies"
