ROMULUS, Mich. (WXYZ) A naked man attempted to walk through a TSA security check at Detroit Metropolitan Airport's McNamara Terminal Friday morning.
According to an airport spokesperson, the incident happened at 6:30 a.m.
The man walked up to a checkpoint at the McNamara Terminal and removed his clothing. He then disconnected a stanchion, or barrier, at the checkpoint, and approached a metal detector.
The TSA officers didn't allow the man through the detector.
