The US Air Force will conduct a global security review after an intruder entered the base that houses the presidential air craft, Air Force One.
On Thursday, an unarmed adult male was able to access Maryland’s Joint Base Andrews and enter a C-40 aircraft, part of a fleet used by government leaders.
The Defence department spokesman John Kirby said yesterday that everyone was taking the incident very seriously though no suggestion that the intruder is linked to extremist groups.
The suspect was detained by security forces on the base, according to a statement from the Air Force, and was given a federal summons for trespassing and handed over to local law enforcement.
No personnel were harmed during the breach. END
