TULSA, Okla. (AP) -- Tulsa Police arrested a driver for speeding to the airport, but it wasn't to catch a flight.

TPD says that no one was injured.
Police say they followed the driver all the way up the roadway leading to the terminals at TIA.
TPD says the driver spun out and didn’t hit anyone else.
