X-ray equipment used by federal security screeners in Columbus could not detect what was inside a sealed canister in luggage being inspected around 7 p.m. Tuesday. The container was labeled "baby food," but authorities say security personnel became suspicious when the woman who owned the suitcase claimed the canister held pickles. A fire department bomb squad removed the item from the airport and detonated it, discovering the mangoes. ___ Information from: WBNS-TV, http://www.10tv.com/ |
