Major airport security alert

A major security alert has been sparked after an Arab teenager claiming to support Saddam Hussein climbed onto an airliner at Stansted airport and caused £15,000 damage.

Moroccan-born Josef Monti arrived on the Eurostar train on false papers and within 48 hours walked unchallenged into a highly- restricted area at the airport.

He climbed into the cockpit of an unlocked European Aviation Boeing 737, which was empty and unguarded, and smashed instrument panels and equipment.
