Security breach leads to closure of San Francisco airport's Terminal 3
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO - Hundreds of passengers are being rescreened at San
Francisco International Airport's Terminal 3 after a security breach forced
the terminal to close.
Airport spokesman Mike McCarron tells KGO-TV the terminal was shut down
Friday morning after an incident of unauthorized access between 3:30 a.m.
and 4 a.m. He declined to provide details, but attributed the incident to a
"procedural breakdown."
The terminal was shut down and checked. Passengers and employees were
rescreened starting around 5:30 a.m.
McCarron says some early morning flights could be delayed.
The terminal serves United Airlines.
