Can security detain you for running? I don’t think stop running is a lawful order if you haven’t committed a crime. Running itself would have to be a crime. Not like you’re gonna win anything by not listening to them but I think they were power tripping. Sounds like they were protecting the airport from a slip and fall lawsuit rather than protecting you or anyone else there. Anyways congrats on making it home!

Sorry I wasn’t trying to say he did. I’m moreso asking if it’s not a crime, what can he do if you don’t listen? Is it an enforceable lawful order if there’s no rule against running? Idk what would happen if that came to be challenged in a court of law and I’m just generally kind of interested in the mechanics of the legality of all that. It’s like an interesting thought experiment to ponder, but I also think there’s probably a correct answer that someone more knowledgable than me would know. We’d have to ask Attorney Tom or something, and he would probably say “It Depends.” Lol
