TULSA, Okla. (AP) -- Officials at Tulsa International Airport temporarily closed a concourse Tuesday morning after someone went around a security checkpoint.

Airport spokeswoman Mary Smith says police arrested an individual about 5:50 AM Tuesday after the person walked through the exit lane of the checkpoint and into Concourse B.

Smith also says it's possible a person could get confused in the area because of construction, but says the incident is still under investigation.

She declined to release information about the person's identity.

The concourse was shut down for about an hour for a security check. Smith says about 12 flights were affected.
