In short:

Indian police have arrested an American man who visited a restricted island and left offerings to a tribe not contacted by the modern world.

Mykhailo Polyakov had previously made two unsuccessful attempts to reach North Sentinel Island, home of the Sentinelese people.

What's next?

Local authorities say he has been released on a three-day remand "for further interrogation".

I was joking with my sister that the tribe will be the 3rd party that has the formula for coke after they taste that one can and their entire culture devolves into trying to create more.

The problem is, he left Diet Coke. What an evil man.
