The man, who has not been identified, had a ticket for Flight 1060, which was going to Newark. But after 6 a.m., as the flight was boarding, he came into some kind of contact with airline employees. As workers approached him, the man took off running, according to Miami-Dade Police Detective Lee Cowart, a department spokesman. American Airlines spokeswoman Alexis Aran Coello said in an email that the passenger bypassed the gate agent as he ran by. “He fled into a jetway and onto a plane that was parked at the gate,” Cowart said.
