Driver plows through airport gate onto airfield, sneaks onto planes before police takedown, bodycam shows
Bryan Parker, 58, allegedly drove drunk onto the Daytona Beach airport airfield and tried boarding planes. He faces aircraft piracy and DUI charges.
The driver, later identified as 58-year-old Bryan Parker, then allegedly exited his vehicle on the airfield and approached an occupied, running plane before attempting to make entry.
When Parker realized the airplane was locked, authorities said, he ran to two unoccupied planes and "briefly made entry to them" before being approached by airport staff and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University security.
An airport operations technician subsequently pulled Parker out of a plane and sat him on his truck's tailgate, but he jumped off the vehicle and began running toward another plane before he was once again detained.
"I don't remember. I was at my house," Parker told officers. "I went to an AA meeting, and, next thing you know, I'm doing cocaine, drinking and smoking pot."
"Yeah, and I crashed my car," Parker replied.
He is being held without bond in the Volusia County Jail.
The Volusia County Sheriff's Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
