A pilot on a Southwest Airlines flight was walked off the flight by police officers and arrested for allegedly showing up for the flight intoxicated.
David Paul Allsop, 52, was arrested by airport police in Savannah just before he was supposed to pilot a Southwest flight from Savannah/Hilton Head Airport in Georgia to Chicago-Midway on Wednesday morning.
A spokesperson for the Transportation Safety Administration told the Daily Beast that one of their agents at the airport was the one who noticed Allsop appeared intoxicated and alerted police.
