South Australian Police are searching for a man seen running on the runways at Parafield Airport in Adelaide's northern suburbs. The incident occurred on July 7, 2025. The motive behind the man's actions is unknown.
Adelaide police are currently on the hunt for a man who was spotted running across the runways of Parafield Airport in Adelaide's northern suburbs on July 7, 2025. The incident, which occurred around 3:30 PM local time, has sparked a manhunt and a temporary lockdown of the airport [1].The man, described as being in dark clothing, was seen running on the runways before disappearing into a storm drain. Emergency services, including the police Special Tasks and Rescue squad and the dog squad, were deployed to search the area. Despite their efforts, the man could not be found. The airport was temporarily closed following the incident, with normal service resuming approximately two hours later [1].
One flight from Whyalla circled Adelaide for a while before landing safely, while another light plane had to push back its scheduled departure by 40 minutes due to the situation [1]. The airport is primarily used by privately-owned light planes and for aviation training.
South Australian Police have appealed for any potential witnesses to the incident to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. The motive behind the man's actions remains unknown [1].
The incident comes at a time when South Australia is experiencing a surge in aviation activity, with Parafield Airport serving as a key hub for both commercial and private flights. The airport's closure and subsequent search operation have had minimal impact on the airport's operations, with all flights resuming as scheduled [1].
The search for the man continues, with police and emergency services remaining vigilant. The airport is expected to return to normal operations in the coming days, with no immediate threat to the safety of passengers or aircraft [1].
