It all sounds like the plot of a movie or dime store novel. But, CBS4 I-Team investigator Stephen Stock discovered it's not fiction but the plot of a Miami-Dade Ethics Commission Report on the actions of Miami Beach's city commission. Strippers, money, alcohol and the Miami Beach city commission.
It's become the new Miami vice. Cocaine Cowboys turned to Highway Hijackers, and it is now the costliest crime in America.

Yet another near collision on a runway was reported in South Florida, coming less than a day after an exclusive CBS4 investigation into close calls in our skies and on our airport runways. The CBS4 I-Team has learned that only hours after our I-Team investigation aired, it happened again. This time it happened at Miami International Airport. This latest close call involved a twin engine turboprop and a Boeing 757. Sources tell the CBS4 I-Team that around 10 a.m. Tuesday, an American Eagle Airlines AT-72 made a wrong turn onto runway 26 L. At the same time the 757, operated by UPS, was being cleared for take off, doing 50 knots down the very same runway 26L--headed straight for the turboprop when air traffic controllers intervened and stopped both planes.

It can't happen here." That's the refrain state transportation officials repeated again and again after a major interstate bridge collapsed in Minneapolis last summer. But an exclusive and exhaustive CBS4 I-Team investigation calls all that into question.
