Aircraft Cleaner Arrested For Bringing Girlfriend Onboard

Passed Through Security Without Proper Clearance

Detroit Metro Airport police arrested a 22-year-old Dearborn Heights man who apparently thought his job cleaning airplanes presented a novel opportunity to impress a date.

The Detroit Free Press reports the man boarded the Delta plane just after midnight using his badge from Prospect Airport Services, which provides cleaning, skycap and wheelchair escort services. Airport spokesman Michael Conway said once the door was open, "...he swept himself in with his badge and swept her in too. The problem is, cameras watch everything."

Metro police say the two are being charged with a misdemeanor security breach and also may face fines through the US Transportation Security Administration, though the TSA is reportedly satisfied the pair had no terrorist intent.

Now, really... did the TSA really have to work at that conclusion?
