Airport pursuit nets arrest

Miami International Airport pursuit nets arrest amidst terrorism concerns, investigation continues

The National Terror Alert Response Center reported Tuesday, Feb. 26, on a man who “bolted from a security checkpoint” at Miami International, Monday afternoon.

The man, reportedly in his mid 30s, is in custody as investigators sift the meaning of his contradictory IDs bearing different names from different countries – and probe why he ran. 

The man aroused the suspicion of a Transportation Security Administration document checker, the official said.

The document checker reported his suspicion to a behavior detection officer.

The man went through a metal detector without triggering an alarm, then went on to secondary screening.

He bolted from there without apparent reason, going back through the metal detector to the unsecure side of the airport, the official said.

He was followed by TSA officers to the airport curb, where he was apprehended by Miami-Dade police officers.

Officials said they are trying to determine the man’s nationality and why he acted as he did.
The TSA closed the checkpoint for a brief time but did not evacuate the terminal.

The man was evidently traveling alone, according to an official cited by NTARC reports, and ran when under scrutiny – a wide range of criminal reasons could be behind this, including terrorist criminality.
