CNN has reported that Terminal "C" at Newark International Airport near New York City was locked down on Sunday because of a security breach.

The American news station cited the Transportation Security Administration for the story.

CNN said the terminal was cleared and passengers were being re-screened after a man walked through the wrong side of a checkpoint without being screened.
