Remember this kid?

Semaj Booker, the Tacoma 10-year-old who talked his way onto two Southwest Airlines flights without tickets last year, nearly got away with it again.

According to the Transportation Security Administration, Semaj made it through the security screening area at Sea-Tac Airport early Tuesday morning and was on the ramp to a Sacramento-bound plane before being apprehended.

Port of Seattle police escorted Semaj out of the airport and placed him in protective custody at 6:35 a.m., said Perry Cooper, spokesman for the port.

“When they discovered he had been reported as a missing person in Tacoma, he was transported home and released to the custody of his mother.”

Semaj received international attention last year with a similar stunt. That time, he successfully talked himself aboard two Southwest Airlines flights and made it to Texas to see his grandfather. Much more here:
