Authorities said the pilot of a plane that threatened to crash into a supermarket over Mississippi was arrested Saturday morning.
According to authorities, the person who allegedly stole the plane could be charged with theft and terroristic threats.
In a press conference, Tupelo Police Chief John Kwaka revealed that the now-detained Tupelo Aviation employee does not have a pilot’s license, but only “some instruction.”
Quacka said the man stole the plane, took off, called an emergency number and threatened to crash into a supermarket.
However, they reported that the plane landed safely without any injuries.
Governor Tate Reeves tweeted, “The situation has been resolved and no one was injured.
