Authorities at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport cleared passengers from several concourses on Tuesday night following a security breach.

News organizations including Fox News and The Seattle Times said the problem was caused by a passenger accidentally entering a secure area through an exit.

After he was located, passengers were allowed to return but about 1,500 had to be re-screened through security checkpoints.
