Suspect in Miami Crash Kills Self on Plane

DENVER - A man hanged himself in an airplane lavatory days after being arrested for allegedly driving his new car through a dealership's showroom and setting a nearly $1 million fire, authorities said Thursday.

A United Airlines flight from Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles was diverted to Denver after Gerald Georgettis' body was found. The Denver medical examiner ruled the death a suicide.

Denver police Detective Virginia Lopez said no other passengers were ever in danger.

In Miami, Georgettis, 56, was accused of driving his new Ford Escape through the Metro Ford dealership's showroom on Saturday before pouring gasoline on it and lighting it. Miami-Dade County police have said he was upset about how much he paid for his car.

Fire officials said the blaze burned about a dozen cars, including a $150,000 limited-edition 2006 Ford GT.

Georgettis was charged with arson and felony criminal mischief and released Sunday on $1,500 bond.

Released on bond in Miami, then drove to D.C. and hopped on a flight to LA?

strange cat!


plus the sad part is if i remember correctly that color scheme is especially rare.

I'm sure their insurance will cover it. No biggie.

Yeah, it was painted in Gulf racing colors.

insurance will cover it, but a collectors item had been destroyed and that just sucks!

i was looking at fords site to see if they say anything special about the heratige paint scheme and i found that they had another 'special' color for 2006.
they call it Titanium. it is a darker silver but not quite charcoal.
it looks friggin insane!
