Authorities say a woman breached security at Teterboro Airport and drove her car across two runways.
According to Port Authority police, the 32-year-old woman followed an authorized vehicle Tuesday morning through an open gate, drove across the runways and then stopped and ran on foot.
Police tracked her down to a home in Moonachie and took her into custody.
The woman's name has not been released.
Authorities say there were no planes on the runway at the time.
Charges against the woman are pending.
The Port Authority says it is investigating the breach to determine how to prevent such a thing from happening again.
AP wire services helped contribute to this report.
