Officials are evacuating a terminal at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City because of a security breach.

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey spokesman Steve Coleman says travelers at Kennedy’s Terminal 8 are being asked to leave and will be re-screened.

The security breach apparently involved someone who left a first class American Airlines lounge, opened a door that was supposed to be used only by airport workers and walked through.

Coleman says it’s unclear whether the person was a passenger. He says the breach happened before 3:30 p.m. and was recorded by security cameras. Fox News
