The airfield was then closed while officers worked to determine if a breach of the airfield had occurred.

Investigators soon found a man inside one of Signature Aviation’s private hangars, according to court documents. He was identified as 19-year-old Felipe Alonzo Perez.

Officers then viewed surveillance footage that showed Perez arrive at the gate around 1:45 a.m. and drive into the barrier at least four times within a few minutes, according to an arrest warrant. A passenger inside the vehicle was seen jumping out of the car and running toward the airfield before Perez then also got out of the car and ran toward the airfields.

During questioning at the precinct, Perez reportedly admitted through a translator he drank four alcoholic beverages before driving his nephew to get some of his belongings from where he worked.
