"Man arrested covered in salad dressing
FORT WORTH -- A 27-year-old Corpus Christi airline passenger recently found himself in sticky situation. The disheveled passenger was arrested in Terminal B at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport after police found him sitting on an American Eagle jet bridge on Halloween covered in salad dressing, according to police reports released this week. Speaking in a "thick-tongued manner," the man, who couldn't stand without assistance, expressed confusion about why he was being prevented from boarding a flight, records show. The man also seemed unaware that he was missing a shoe. Officers figured out pretty quickly where the dressing, also on the jet bridge walls, had come from. The man was holding a food box, which was spilling open, records show. Upon further questioning, police indicated that the man told them that he had been drinking vodka in an airport restaurant. He was held on suspicion of public intoxication. -- Melissa Vargas"
