This one comes from deep in the archives, stretching back to November 8, 2013. It's is also my way of stalling as I continue working on the material I told you about toward the end of last week. It's coming soon, and is only delayed because the Lakemoor OIS footage unexpectedly arrived in the mail on Friday afternoon, after I had posted that another big story was in the works (the Lakemoor footage wasn't it). Anyway, on November 8, 2013 Seattle resident Ryan C. Vanhoutte, who had "done some coke" breached Lane 3 of TSA security Checkpoint 5 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport — by leaping over two stanchions and running through a magnetometer. He then ran down the airport’s secure D concourse, ultimately exiting through a marked emergency exit door near gate D8 — and gaining entry to the airport ramp area. Vanhoutte wasn’t done. He climbed the stairs from the ramp to the end of the D8 jetway. Faced with a locked door at the top of the stairs, he broke the security glass and climbed through the window into the jetway. Determined to do something (only he knows what), Vanhoutte then gained access to the American Airlines aircraft parked at gate D8. A Menzies employee reported seeing Vanhoutte opening the main cabin door, entering the aircraft, and closing the door behind him. Shortly thereafter, TSA Agent Gregory Steele followed Airport Police Officer Hess onto the jetway. Upon reaching the end of the jetway Hess saw broken glass on the ground and noticed that the security glass in the secured door to the ramp was broken. An airline ramp worker standing outside the locked door told Officer Hess that their subject was onboard the plane. At 2038 hours, Officer Hess boarded the plane followed by Officer Steele. Officer Hess observed a single white male seated in the First Class cabin at row 4. The male was identified by way of his Washington driver’s license as Ryan C. Vanhoutte. Officer Hess approached Vanhoutte from behind and announced his presence by saying "Police, lean forward and put your hands behind your back." Vanhoutte looked up at Officer Hess and immediately started shouting his name and saying that he was a ticketed passenger flying to Hawaii. You can't make this stuff up. Officer Hess again instructed Vanhoutte to put his hands behind his back, placing pressure on his back between his shoulder blades and attempted to capture his forearms behind his back so he could be handcuffed. In response, Vanhoutte unbuckled his seat belt and started running toward the cockpit door. Genius. Officer Hess was afraid Vanhoutte may enter the cockpit where Officer Hess assumed the plane's pilots were located. Because of this, Officer Hess attempted to tackle him before reaching the cockpit door. Their momentum carried them forward and they hit the door “with significant force” and a ground struggle began. Multiple backup officers had trouble subduing Vanhoutte, who only became compliant after being threatened with a taser. Vanhoutte was placed in leg restraints and carried to the jetway and down to a waiting patrol car. Vanhoutte was charged with Assault 3 (RCW 9A.36.031), Malicious Mischief (RCW 9A.48.070), Criminal Trespass 1 (RCW 9A.52.070), and Resisting Arrest (RCW 9A.76.040).
