A Grandpa arrested at Cuba airport with 66 tiny birds sewn into his trousers after customs officer spots

  A man has been arrested in Cuba - for attempting to board a flight to America with 66 birds sewn inside his trousers.

The bird man was seized at Ignacio Agramonte International Airport in the Cuban city of Camaguay and was picked up because of the curious bulges in his trousers.

After being stopped by customs, the man bizarrely claimed he was only concealing a pigeon as a gift for his grandson.

'He said: "What I have here is a pigeon that is a gift for my grandson" but that too was a lie. He then wanted to continue on his way
