According to an FBI affidavit, a Colorado man is facing federal charges after allegedly groping a female airline passenger and then urinating on the seat in front of him. 45-year-old Michael Allen Haag was traveling from Denver to Charleston, South Carolina on Frontier Airlines when he became unruly and disrupted the flight. Haag, drinking double vodka and tonics, told a woman seated next to him that he was traveling to South Carolina to meet with an old girlfriend and was “physically excited.” The woman said Haag pestered her with personal questions and kept looking at her “chest and legs as she was wearing a tank top and shorts.” After touching another female passenger and being moved to the back of the plane, Haag removed his seatbelt “and started urinating on the seat in front of him.” Upon landing in South Carolina, Haag was removed from the aircraft by officers with the Charleston Aviation Authority Police Department.

A baboon on his way to a South Texas wildlife sanctuary escaped his crate and kept officers busy for two hours at San Antonio International Airport. Officers shot the baboon named Dawkins with a tranquilizer dart. The ape got loose Monday afternoon shortly after arriving on an American Airlines flight from Chicago. The flight had originated in Boston. Airport spokesman Rich Stinson says officers managed to corner Dawkins in a baggage handling area outside the terminal. Stinson says the baboon never came close to travelers and was confined the whole time to a secure baggage area. Dawkins was being transported from Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, to the Born Free USA sanctuary near Cotulla, Texas. - wate.com
