Norwegian Man Bypasses Security to Board Flights

A 39-year-old Norwegian man managed to bypass security and board flights at Munich Airport without a ticket on two consecutive days. On August 4, he slipped through the automated gates by closely following another passenger and boarded a fully booked flight to Hamburg, where he was discovered and handed over to the police but then released. The next day, he used the same technique to board a Lufthansa flight to Stockholm, successfully flying to Sweden. His actions were uncovered when he tried to return to Munich on the same plane, leading to his arrest. He is now under investigation for unlawful entry and fare evasion. Authorities are scrutinizing security protocols at Munich Airport to understand how he managed to evade checks twice.
