A man has been arrested after crashing through a fence and sprinting from police onto a runway at the Salt Lake City airport early Monday.

The 8-minute chase started on a public road near Salt Lake City International at 3 a.m. when an airport police officer tried to stop a car with its bumper dragging.

The car took off, crashing through the fence lines and onto the tarmac area. The car then crashed into another fence and the driver jumped out and ran before being arrested.

Leo Greene, 39, of Salt Lake City, faces multiple charges, including driving under the influence, fleeing and resisting arrest.

Salt Lake City International Airport officials said no flights or passengers were affected because there wasn't airfield activity at the time.

"It doesn't sound very nefarious," said Dave Korzep, the airport's superintendent of operations. "Just a lack of common sense, driving under the influence, making wrong choices."

An Associated Press investigation this month found eight other security perimeter breaches at the airport in the last decade.

None of the 268 security breaches at 31 major U.S. airports between January 2004 and January 2015 that were documented by the AP were terrorism-related.

Airports also say breaches are relatively rare, although intoxicated drivers crashing through barriers is not uncommon.

Officials said Greene suffered minor injuries during the foot chase and was taken to a hospital.

He is also being booked for property damage and driving onto the loading area of an airport, with an open container and on a license suspended for an alcohol-related offense.

The AP sought comment on the charges from Greene, but he was still in police custody. It wasn't immediately clear whether he had an attorney.
