Is he in the running for a Darwin Award?

Walking through the Check In area of the domestic terminal at Cairns t'other night, and Bloggs and I witnessed part of an angry exchange between a bloke we took to be a would-be passenger and a representative of a LCC. The would-be pax was very wound up, whilst the airline man, seemed to keep his cool. As we walked past, we heard the airline man call to one of his colleagues, "Call the AFP please".

The next day we found out that would-be was suspected of being under the influence, and when told that a manager would have to approve further processing, took a great deal of umbrage.

Stoopid idjut. When the AFP presented, and made a little check, would-be was taken into custody. Seems the dill had three outstanding warrants for his arrest! Fancy drawing that kind of attention to yourself, in a place crawling with armed coppers!
