Paris may be named after a city in our bella Europa but no one does it quite like an European heir. I give you Mathias Guerrand-Hermès. Alas I cannot find a good photo of the man but a description of his dastardly deeds from today's SMH should suffice:
An heir to French luxury goods empire Hermes had to be tied down on an Air France plane after fighting crew members and seizing the captain's crotch, US officials said today.
Mathias Guerrand-Hermes was arrested yesterday when the flight from Paris landed at JFK airport in New York. He was charged with "interference with a flight crew" and freed by a court after posting a $US50,000 ($77,000) bond.
Prosecutors allege Guerrand-Hermes, a member of the family behind the legendary handbags and scarves brand, appeared drunk and was bothering passengers in the first-class section of Air France flight 008. When the captain intervened, Guerrand-Hermes "grabbed the captain's genital area", according to the complaint sheet. He allegedly "attempted to punch the captain".
"At that point the defendant was tackled by the flight crew" who "were able to restrain the defendant ... with handcuffs and shackles". Finally, Guerrand-Hermes was tied to his seat.
