Reports: Stowaway found on flight from Havana to Miami

Authorities say a stowaway was found hiding in the cargo section of an airplane that arrived from Havana to Miami International Airport.

Video shared on Twitter early Friday showed crew members surrounding the man on the ground after the Swift Air private charter landed in Miami shortly after midnight.

Witnesses told NBC6 they heard what sounded like a dog in the cargo area before a man asked for water.
