I can't believe the press actually admitted their mistake in print. But then they print his name ??


Pilot arrested had blood alcohol level of 0.016
Airport police say they will not file charges against a Midwest Airlines pilot who was arrested at the airport before a flight last week.

As we first reported last night at 10:00 p.m., XXXXXXX XXXXX XXXXX was not allowed to fly Midwest flight 5 from the Twin Cities to Milwaukee on November 12th.

Airport police say he was removed from the cockpit after security officers reported smelling alcohol when Acree arrived for his flight.

5 EYEWITNESS NEWS reviewed an investigative report which said Acree had a blood-alcohol level of 0.016. For a time overnight on KSTP.COM, we mistakenly referred to that number as 0.16 That was incorrect.

The Federal Aviation Administration and the airline say their investigations are continuing.

I surely hope that he is suing both the TV news station AND the TSA for this. We can't have idiots detaining us because they think that they smell alcohol.

He should try vodka, not so smelly.
