A man, Sergey Vladimirovich Ochigava, has been accused of being a stowaway on a flight from Denmark to the United States after disembarking at Los Angeles International Airport without a passport or ticket. Ochigava, a dual Russian-Israeli national, allegedly made no effort to hide his presence during the 12-hour journey and engaged in various activities on the plane.

The FBI is investigating the case and has applied for a search warrant for Ochigava's phone to gather more information about his movements.
