A driver with a clown mask claimed he had "a (expletive) bomb" and threatened to "blow this place up" after ramming his vehicle through a Las Vegas airport’s fence earlier this week, according to police.

The suspect, identified as Matthew Hancock, 36, also claimed to be "the chosen one" and requested a flight to Area 51, the highly classified U.S. Air Force facility in Nevada, FOX 5 of Las Vegas reported.

Later, authorities said Hancock was the same suspect accused of reckless driving Nov. 11 along the famous Strip in Las Vegas, the station reported.

On Wednesday, Las Vegas police stationed at McCarran International Airport were alerted to possible trouble along a perimeter fence near the Mandalay Bay hotel, FOX 5 reported.

Witnesses told arriving officers that a driver in a Lincoln Continental with California plates was seen doing "doughnut" turns in the area before ramming the vehicle through the airport fence, according to the report.

The first person to reach the driver was an employee with Atlantic Aviation, a contractor that supplies airport ground-support staff, FOX 5 reported.

"I have a (expletive) bomb," Hancock told the airport worker, according to a police report. "I’m going to blow this place up."
