Description: 
	At approximately 4:00am on 6/30/06, an unidentified individual forced
	entry into the Perry (Oklahoma) Municipal Airport FBO by smashing a
	large heavy steel trash barrel through a locked glass entry door. 
	Upon entry, he proceeded into the attached hangar (where the EagleMed
	aircraft was located) and managed to start a heavy fire rescue vehicle
	that was secured inside.  He then used the vehicle to drive through
	security fences, striking several local hangars and causing damage to
	numerous aircraft.  Then, he proceeded to drive the vehicle into the
	side of the home in which the EagleMed medical crew and pilot were
	stationed. 
	
	At this point, he obtained an SUV and departed the airport, traveling
	at a high rate of speed on the wrong side of a highway, resulting in a
	head-on crash with another vehicle.  This individual was killed in the
	crash and seriously injured the other driver.
	
	There were no injuries to the flight team or to the medical
	helicopter.
	

Additional Info: 
	The investigation into this situation is underway.
	
	Although an unusual case, it serves as an example of the degree to
	which a person or persons may go to breach security.
