Couple on JetBlue plane 'performed sex act as kids watched on' in mid-air
Trista L Reilly, 43, and Christopher Drew Arnold, 42, were arrested shortly after their flight to Sarasota, Florida - they are accused of performing sexual acts on a plane A couple have been arrested after two children allegedly saw them performing a sexual act on a plane. Trista L Reilly, 43, and Christopher Drew Arnold, 42, were arrested after their flight from John F Kennedy International Airport in New York to Sarasota, Florida in the US. Court documents reportedly state Reilly was seen 'making up-and-down movements with her head while she was face down on Mr Arnold's lap' by a flight attendant who had been made aware of the allegations. The documents say the JetBlue flight attendant had been approached at 10:28am on July 19 by a mother travelling with her two children. The two children allegedly directly saw Reilly and Arnold, from Connecticut, engaged in the act. The couple were arrested at 11:30am shortly after the plane landed at Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, according to ABC affiliate WWSB. They were both charged with two counts lewd and lascivious exhibition in the presence of minors, which is a felony. They were released without bail and are due to be arraigned in court on August 15, the CT Post reported. The New York Post reports police records from Danbury, Connecticut show Arnold was arrested in March for disorderly conduct and assault. JetBue told the Mirror that the alleged behaviour was "completely unacceptable" and is "not tolerated" by the airline. The company said: "Immediately upon receiving the report, our crewmembers acted swiftly to engage JetBlue's security team and law enforcement. We are fully cooperating with the investigation and these customers are no longer welcome to fly JetBlue." It comes after a light aircraft nosedived into a highway in Brescia, Italy, killing two people onboard. Cars were seen driving through the ensuing fireball. The plane can be seen rapidly falling to the ground in a steep descent. Miraculously, the aircraft managed to miss all of the cars and other vehicles on the Corda Molle at the time. Two people onboard the aircraft, a 75-year-old lawyer from Milan named Sergio Ravaglia and his female partner Anna Maria De Stefano, 50, are reported to have died. The crash occurred after midday on Tuesday after the plane took off from the Gagnano Trebbiense runway in the Piacenza region, Italian broadcasting channel Sky TG24 said. Officials investigating the incident involving the 'ultralight' plane have said it will be difficult to determine what caused the crash. Claudio Nolli, 49, was also driving nearby. She said she had entered a ring road close to the crash when flames suddenly erupted in her eye line. 'I entered the ring road and saw a burst of flame, without understanding what had happened,' she said. 'I had a truck in front of me and I crashed into it, passing through the flames. Then there was a loud bang, it was a ball of fire.' She added: 'I never thought something like this could happen to me. At the time, I assumed the truck in front of me had lost something; I had no idea it was a plane. I had seen it in the air before, but I realized later. For twenty seconds, it missed me too."

US mother and son remanded in custody over €1m cannabis seizure
A US mother and son charged over a seizure of almost €1 million worth of cannabis at Dublin Airport on Sunday have been remanded in custody. Hellasha Tingman, 48, and her 30-year-old son Shawndell Gaston, of the Bronx, New York in the United States, were each charged with unlawful possession and importation of cannabis, and having it for sale or supply. They appeared before Judge Treasa Kelly at Dublin District Court facing bail objections. Garda Sinead Deevy gave evidence of the arrest of Ms Tingman at customs in Terminal 2 under the Misuse of Drugs Act. The court heard the woman gave no reply when charged with possessing 26.2kg of cannabis in two suitcases, with an approximate value of €524,000. Questioned by defence barrister Paddy Flynn, instructed by solicitor Tracy Horan, the garda agreed the overall seizure involved 49kg of cannabis. She agreed with the barrister that the woman had an address in the Bronx and had been on an inbound flight from New York's John F Kennedy International Airport. Mr Flynn said his client earns $177 (€151) a week and pays $790 (€674) in rent. Judge Kelly held she was entitled to legal aid and noted Ms Tingman was making a bail application at this stage. She remanded her in custody to appear again. Garda Thomas Bourke said Mr Gaston made no reply when charged with the same category of offences in connection with the rest of the seizure. His solicitor, Paddy McGarry, said his client was not applying for bail at this stage. Judge Kelly allowed Mr Gatson legal aid.

Suspect held over deadly US fertility clinic bombing
US federal authorities have arrested a suspect in connection with last month's deadly bombing at a fertility clinic in Palm Springs, California, according to law enforcement officials. The suspect, Daniel Park, a 32-year-old man from Washington state, was taken into custody at John F Kennedy International Airport in New York, the officials said. He will make an initial appearance in Brooklyn federal court on Wednesday afternoon and eventually face charges in California. Park had been detained in Poland and deported by Polish authorities. US officials were not clear why he had travelled to Poland and said he was not in southern California on the day of the bombing. Officials alleged that Park secured 270 pounds of a fertiliser for Guy Bartkus, the primary suspect in the bombing. The officials charged Park with providing and attempting to provide material support to a terrorist. Bartkus, 25, died in the blast. A bomb detonated shortly before 11am local time on May 17 in or near a car parked outside the fertility clinic, operated by American Reproductive Center. In addition to the death of the primary suspect, several other people were injured, according to authorities. Bartkus had "nihilistic ideations," FBI officials said at the time, adding that they were investigating the attack as an act of terrorism. On Wednesday law enforcement officials said that Park shared those views and had posted them on internet forums. Wednesday's arrest was first reported by NBC News.
