Drunken man caused a security breach at Sky Harbor

Hi All,

I hear the news last night. The drunken men went through secure door, but he opened a secure door. He dose not have SIDA badge, but he was ticketed passengers.

It did not affect any Sky Harbor flights.

for an unknown reason he opened a secure door leading to air operations.

The door, in Terminal Four near gate C-12, requires badge access to open, and when the man opened it, an alarm sounded and strobe lights flashed


Not a very secure door, I reckon.

Probably also functioned as a crash/evacuation door. The badge access is for not making the fire alarm go off.

Actually, it jsut only for the secure door alarm, but not a fire alarm. He didn't pull the fire alarm. If you hear alarm sounds. If you see passengers who opened the jetway door. GA will push "C" button and then swipe the badge. When the alarm goes off. They will notify the aviation department. It's whether if you see the flight crew or anybody else who go into the gate.
