Misleading Headline of the Day

Star Tribune: "Tigers' Owner Jailed After Woman Attacked"

Forgive me for, upon reading this, believing that Mike Ilitch had been arrested on spousal abuse charges. In fact, it was merely a dude who owned some tigers.

I had the reverse experience (misreading a headline as NOT being about sports) yesterday. There must be a word for this.
