PORTLAND, Ore. - A scorpion on an airplane stung a Portland-area man flying from Seattle to Anchorage.
...
Ellis was trying to sleep on a red-eye flight when he felt something inside one of his sleeves. He brushed it aside without looking, thinking a small bug might be on his arm.

"Then I felt it crawling on me again," he said. "I picked my hand up and said, oh my God, that's a scorpion."
