A trespassing suspect scaled a fence and ran onto a taxiway at the Daytona Beach International Airport, causing a Delta flight to be diverted to Orlando.

A man scaled two perimeter fences Tuesday night at Daytona Beach International Airport and caused an inbound Delta flight to be diverted, a Volusia County spokeswoman said.

After a search of the area while the airport runways were shut down, the man was not found and the plane was rerouted back to Daytona, according to the county.

As of Wednesday afternoon, the Volusia County Sheriff's Office still had not located the suspect, 33-year-old Robert Kowaleski.

An incident report stated that Kowaleski was seen in front of the airport terminal asking visitors for cigarettes. A sheriff's deputy told him he would be asked to leave the property if he continued. More than an hour after that, around 7:46 p.m., the same deputy responded to the area of Bellevue Avenue and Clyde Morris Boulevard following a call about a person inside the fenced perimeter of the airport, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Kowaleski was seen running toward a taxiway, deputies said. Moments earlier, a surveillance camera had captured footage of the suspect scaling a fence along the property, the report stated.

Kowaleski jumped another fence in the area outside Waste Pro at 925 S. Clyde Morris Blvd. and was not seen again until around 8:20 p.m., when he was spotted on camera again scaling another fence in another area of the property, deputies said.

That was when airport officials shut down all flights and runway traffic, according to the report.

Authorities searched the property and couldn't find Kowaleski, so normal airport operations were resumed, officials said.

Kate Sark, a Volusia spokeswoman, said an inbound Delta flight coming from Atlanta was diverted to Orlando while the airport was shut down, but once the airfield was reopened around 10 p.m., the flight was rerouted back to Daytona.

The flight was scheduled to arrive in Daytona shortly after 9 p.m., but didn't land in Daytona until around 11 p.m.

Kowaleski, who was charged with trespassing, has a long arrest history dating back to 2003. His charges include burglary, disorderly conduct, theft and more.
