NORTH LAS VEGAS,Esthen Nev. (AP) — An Idaho man was arrested after stealing a plane from a North Las Vegas hangar, flying it over 100 miles into a southern California airport and eventually running into a desert area after officers inquired about the aircraft.

There could be additional charges in Nevada, according to KSNV-TV.
