A thirty one year old Colorado man was arrested for suspicion of attempting to steal a jet that he would fly to Hawaii allegedly. According to the Douglas County Sheriffs Office:
"This note is based on an actual incident (this week) where a suspect male breached the secure perimeter to the runway at Centennial Airport in an attempt to steal a jet and fly to Hawaii. We've all been at the point where we needed a vacation, but this took it a little far... note to self... video games are not real... stealing a jet will not go well."
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office posted about the "note to self" incident after a suspect allegedly tried to jump the fence at Centennial Airport to fly a plane to Hawaii.

This has happened before, such as a case in Arkansas in 2019 where a man attempted to steal a jet so he could fly it to Chicago to attend a music concert. That epic gamer move was halted before it could be performed as well.
