Michael Lowe spent 17 days in a crowded jail cell, alternating between sleeping on a concrete floor and a metal bunk. He had no idea why he was behind bars.

Lowe was not the culprit, but the information the airline sent to police was enough for them to issue an arrest warrant on charges of felony burglary and misdemeanor criminal mischief, court documents state.

According to the lawsuit, when Lowe was finally released, he had to buy a Greyhound bus ticket and walk miles to be picked up. The bus broke down, turning a 12-hour trip into a two-day journey home, his lawyer said."Upon stepping through the threshold of his home, Mr. Lowe allowed himself to sob until he could no longer stand," the lawsuit states.
