Hours after a security breach forced the closure of a
terminal at the Newark, New Jersey, airport Sunday, authorities were
still searching for a man who went the wrong way through a checkpoint
exit.

The incident happened at about 5:20 p.m. at Terminal C, when an
individual walked from the public side to the secure
“sterile” side for passengers who had cleared screening,
according to the Transportation Security Administration.

No flights were allowed to leave from Terminal C Sunday evening and
thousands of other travelers who had reached the sterile area after
going through checkpoints were moved back to the public area to be
re-screened, the TSA said.

Authorities are reviewing video from airport cameras. They are not
sure whether the man was once on the sterile side and went back, or if
he never went through screening, TSA spokeswoman Anne Davis said.
