A 36-year-old Portuguese man illegally entered the parking area at Humberto Delgado Airport in Lisbon on Sunday. The incident occurred when the man jumped over the security fence that delineates the restricted access zone for the public.

Following the breach, the man was immediately intercepted by airport workers, who detained him until the relevant authorities arrived.

The Public Security Police (PSP) were called to the scene, and upon their arrival, the man was handed over to them for investigation.

As a result of the incident, the man received medical assistance from the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM) on-site. He was subsequently taken to a hospital for further medical evaluation.

The circumstances that led the man to breach the restricted area have not yet been clarified, and authorities continue to investigate the case.
