A West Australian man faced the Perth Magistrates Court yesterday accused of fleeing police and trespassing onto the tarmac at Perth Airport on Monday, where he was quickly arrested by the Australian Federal Police (AFP).

AFP officers at Perth Airport were speaking to the man, 18, when he allegedly gave them false personal information and fled. It is alleged the man ran from police before using an emergency exit door to run into a restricted area at Perth Airport.

The man is accused of running against the flow of oncoming passengers, where he used another emergency exit to gain access to the tarmac.

More info as it comes to hand.
