LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities are investigating how a man made his way onto a runway at Los Angeles International Airport.
Airport police officer Rob Pedregon says the intruder was arrested just minutes after being spotted sprinting toward a plane Saturday evening.
A Southwest Airlines pilot first saw the man running on the tarmac.
Pedregon, who did not release the man’s identity, says the suspect could face charges including trespassing.
