The vehicle ultimately ended up inside the terminal after crashing through doors and windows.
No one was injured during the crash.
“I want to thank New Hanover County Sheriff’s Office, other law enforcement agencies, airport staff, and our airport partners that acted quickly and effectively last night,” ILM Airport Director Jeff Bourk said. “I am very proud of our team. I also want to thank Monteith Construction, who responded quickly overnight to make temporary repairs to the fence line and terminal front, so normal operations could resume.”
The airport is open and fully operational, according to ILM.
