Stowaway caught after getting aboard Delta flight from New York City to Paris

A stowaway somehow made it onto a Delta Air Lines flight Tuesday from New York City to Paris without a boarding pass, officials confirmed.

The woman boarded Delta Flight No. 264 from John F. Kennedy International Airport to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, CBS News learned. She was discovered while the plane was in midair and was taken into custody in Paris.

In a social media video posted by a passenger, the captain can be heard over the plane's intercom — after the plane landed in Paris — telling flyers that "we're just waiting for the police to come on board, they may be here now, and they've directed us to keep everyone on the airplane until we sort out the extra passenger that's on the plane."
