'Balloon Boy' Halloween Costumes Selling On Internet
DENVER -- A Canadian company has begun selling a "Balloon Boy Halloween Kit" to capitalize on the plight of the Colorado family at the center of several investigations.

Plantraco Microflight introduced the Halloween costume kit Tuesday, selling online for $19.99.

The kit is a tongue-in-cheek representation of the Heene family of Fort Collins, Colo., and their son, who they claimed had been carried away in a flying-saucer last week. The story, which investigators said was a hoax, received worldwide coverage.
