Arrested after breaking in Madrid airport & trashing planes

Post by Murazor »

Link (in Spanish)

In a nutshell, two idiots (ages 16 and 19) climbed the airport wall without being detected, tried to break into the T-3 terminal building (they failed, but alarms were raised at this point), failed to steal one of those cars used by the ground crews, then broke into two nearby parked airplanes (inflated several lifejackets, messed with the emergency oxygen masks, somehow managed to damage the radio in one and the landing gear in another, for a reported total damage of some twenty seven thousand euros) and got arrested one and a half hours after breaking into the airport as they made their way to another terminal.

Ages 16 and 19? I'm sure it seemed like a good idea at the time. Was alcohol involved, or just teenage stupidity?

Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.- Malcolm Reynolds, Captain of Serenity, which sums up my feelings regarding the lawsuit discussed here.

Yup.

The 19 year old guy, particularly, is in for a universe of suck, since he is an adult and they are probably gonna hit him with the whole book.

This started at 3:51 AM during the night of Friday to Saturday.

It is exceedingly likely that there was alcohol involved, probably in large quantities and poor qualities.
