An investigation is underway into a security incident that brought Brisbane's domestic airport to a standstill last night.
Police were called to the airport just before 10:00pm to respond to the security breach after a woman drove a car through a perimeter fence and onto a runway.
The incident prompted authorities to order an emergency halt to the landing of all planes.
The 37-year-old woman was treated by paramedics and taken to Royal Brisbane Hospital, but the extent of her injuries are unknown.
All flights were put on hold or diverted for more than an hour during the incident before the vehicle was removed from the tarmac.
Several planes, including a Royal Flying Doctor Service aircraft, circled the area in a holding pattern, while other flights were diverted to the Gold Coast.
About 11:30pm the Brisbane Airport Corporation issued a statement saying the "all clear" had been given and the runway had been re-opened.
