(CNN) An Arizona man is suing American Airlines, claiming the airline's negligence led to him spending 17 days in jail after he was misidentified to police investigating a burglary at a duty-free shop in Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in 2020, according to court documents. Airport police got a search warrant for "any and all recorded travel data" for everyone on the flight, according to the court document. The lawsuit alleges the airline "departed from its established procedures" and identified just one passenger -- Lowe. The airline on Wednesday issued a statement on the search warrant. Michael Lowe sent a selfie from the plane just before takeoff, according to the lawsuit.
