Cory Patterson was arrested in September after threatening the northern Mississippi resident for hours. He stole a plane and continued to fly in circles, threatening to crash the plane into the supermarket. Patterson had posted a suicide note on Facebook before taking the drastic step, in which he said that he loved his parents and his sister and didn’t want to hurt anyone.




Thankfully, instead of ramming the airplane into Walmart, Patterson managed to land the plane on a nearby soybean field safely.
