A 58-year-old Florida man has been denied bail on a laundry list of charges, including attempted air piracy, after an incident that apparently began at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting and ended with him being arrested on the ramp at Daytona Beach International Airport. Court documents allege Bryan Parker, 58, ran his Ford Mustang through a perimeter fence gate and, among other things, spun donuts on the ramp at Daytona Beach. Video showed him also chasing an Embry-Riddle flight school Cessna 172 on foot and trying to get into another Cessna before finally being subdued by police.
Volusia County Sheriffs released body cam video of Parker explaining how he ended up face down on the airport ramp in handcuffs. “I went to an AA meeting and the next thing I know I’m doing cocaine, drinking and smoking pot,” he told one of the deputies. At one point he allegedly tried to get into a plane with people in it but they locked the doors. He also allegedly managed to get into some unoccupied aircraft before being subdued by airport and Embry-Riddle security.
He runs pretty good to be mostly stoned. Looks like the airshow act where the drunk steals the Cub. I first saw that act when I was about eight. My Dad had taken me to an airshow. I thought it was real and scared me. Still remember it these many years later.
Never been, but that must have been one hell of a meeting.
Just another day in Florida.
“Breach” is the korekt werd for the rtikle. Although “breech” is what the police were hopefully ready to put a round into for this situation!
Fixed
I always miss the best parties!
