Man in Clown Mask Attempts to Steal Jet to Fly to Area 51 to See Aliens

December 14, 2021

A Las Vegas man is in considerable legal trouble following a wild incident wherein he breached an airport's security perimeter by way of a limousine and then donned a clown mask while attempting to commandeer a jet for a trip to Area 51 to see aliens. The multilayered misadventure reportedly unfolded last Wednesday evening when Matthew Hancock allegedly drove a limo through two metal fences surrounding the city's McCarran International Airport. After pulling up alongside a jet on the tarmac, authorities say the man stepped out of his vehicle, put on a clown mask, and informed workers at the aircraft that he intended to "blow this place up" with a bomb.
