A British man won't be allowed to fly KLM Royal Dutch Airlines anytime soon after he mistook the plane door for the restroom door.
James Gray says he touched the plane's door handle en route from Edinburgh to Amsterdam and was immediately detained by the flight crew. He explained that he thought it was the restroom door and had made an honest mistake. But authorities are having trouble believing that someone couldn't tell the difference between a small lavatory door and the big, heavy airplane door. Gray was escorted off the plane as soon as it landed and was arrested.
He says he was forced to spend a night in jail and fined more than $600. He's also been banned from flying KLM Royal Dutch Airlines for five years.

A Florida man is behind bars after cops say he stole four-million pounds of citrus fruit. That is a lot of O.J.
Police say 61-year-old Bradley Reiter was under contract with three citrus groves to harvest oranges and grapefruits. The only problem is, he wasn't actually a citrus dealer and he squeezed the groves out of about $540,000 that he owed them. Reiter was arrested and charged with fraud, grand theft and dealing citrus without a license.

Police in Florida recently responded to a call about an unusual resident doing an unusual thing: eating mail.
Officers from the Sanford Police Department received a 911 call about a monkey sitting atop a mailbox and eating its contents. When cops arrived at the scene, they discovered the pigtail macaque shaking a traffic sign. After a brief standoff, during which the monkey ripped the molding off a patrol car, they were able to corral him and place him under arrest. The monkey, whose name is Zeek, had somehow escaped from his owner's cage and was returned to his home.
