First or second story on all the NY area news I heard this morning on the way in
After a night of partying with pals, sinking his jet ski and swimming to shore, Daniel <<ermoved>>, 31, of Howard Beach strolled undetected across two runways and into a terminal.
Neither motion sensors nor closed-circuit cameras of the Perimeter Intrusion Detection System, or PIDS, detected Daniel, who was only busted when he approached a startled Delta Airlines worker near Gate 10.
Earlier that night, Daniel had been drinking at a Rosedale watering hole with his buds when they decided to go out racing their personal watercraft.
Daniel got separated from his partners as darkness fell, and then his jet ski conked out -- so he swam 3 miles to a runway at the airport.
