Aug. 9 (UPI) -- A stowaway gecko caused a scene on a flight from Mexico to England when it ran through the plane.
The Solihull Council's Trading Standards team said officials were summoned to Birmingham Airport when the small lizard was found running loose on the flight from Cancun, Mexico.
The team said the lizard was taken to a local veterinarian for a health check-up.
They said a new home is being sought for the gecko.
