Space shuttle astronaut arrested at OIA on attempted kidnapping, battery charges
Former U.S. Navy test pilot and Space Shuttle astronaut, Lisa Marie Nowak, was arrested early Monday at Orlando International Airport on charges of attempted kidnapping, battery, attempted vehicle burglary with battery and destruction of evidence.
Orlando police said she tried to attack U.S. Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman, who is her rival for another astronaut's attention.
NASA said this is the first time an active duty NASA astronaut had been arrested on felony charges they are aware of.
