Man Jailed for Slealing Plane in Thunder Bay

The 31-year-old Canadian man who stole a small plane from the Thunder Bay Airport and flew it into the U-S is going to jail for 2-years.
Adam Leon flew over 3-states, followed by U-S fighter jets for most of his 7-hour flight, before landing on a southern Missouri highway.
Leon told police he’d hoped to be shot down because he was depressed.
In addition to sentencing him yesterday to 2-years behind bars, a St. Louis judge also suggested for his depression that Leon treat himself to the classic film, “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
