MIAMI -- An American pizza delivery man, who took off from the Florida Keys in a light plane and crash-landed near Havana last year, pleaded guilty on Thursday to transporting a stolen plane and was sentenced to six months in prison, Reuters reported. U.S. district court judge also ordered Milo John Reese, 55, to pay $45,000 in restitution for the damage to the Cessna 172, the U.S. attorney's office said in a statement. Reese, who delivered pizzas for a pizza hut restaurant, had taken about two weeks worth of flying lessons at Paradise Aviation at Marathon Airport in the Florida Keys.
