A man reportedly late on his flight to Frankfurt tried to gain quicker access to the gate by smashing the alarm.
The airport said the alarm, which was triggered about 2:45 pm local time, prompted an evacuation of the entire airport.
After carrying out his plan, the man was grabbed by airport staff. Other travelers and staff were able to reenter the airport after about 15 minutes.
The Daily Mail says police officers were on the scene, “But it was down to the airport to decide what action to take, and the man was not arrested.”
The airport said in a statement, “Once an airport has started its engines there’s little you can do to get on board if you’re late short of clinging to the undercarriage — which we obviously wouldn’t recommend.”
As for the passenger, the airport tweeted he was questioned and released: “we believe they continued their journey with a much longer delay as a result.”
