"Unauthorized Boarding: Incidents of Non-Ticketed Passengers on Delta Flights"

A non-ticketed passenger was removed from a Delta Air Lines flight in Salt Lake City after attempting to hide in the plane's bathrooms. The passenger used a friend's Southwest Airlines "buddy pass" to get through security and board the Delta flight, but was caught taking pictures of other passengers' boarding passes and attempting to hide in the bathrooms once the flight began taxiing. The individual is currently being held on a federal detainer, and both Delta and TSA are cooperating with law enforcement in the investigation.
