After the incident, Almaleki drove to Mexico, abandoning his vehicle in Nogales. He then made his way to Mexico City and boarded a plane to London, England. British authorities denied him entry into the country, and he was put on a plane back to the United States, police said. Authorities arrested him late Thursday afternoon when he arrived at Atlanta's airport, police said, and he is awaiting extradition to Arizona. Posted by: Pappy 2009-11-01 |
