A force spokesperson said: "Police received a call from a member of the public reporting a male had been spotted climbing a fence close to Leeds Bradford Airport.

"Officers attended the scene and a male was detained in a nearby field, outside the airport perimeter, on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly.

It comes after police arrested a man at London City Airport last week after allegedly trying to breach security.

Officers from the Metropolitan Police were called at 6.45am last Friday following complaints about a man.

Multiple police vehicles were seen surrounding the terminal.

The Met engaged with the man until 9.30am.

He was arrested on suspicion of breaching security and public nuisance offences.
