IT DID NOT GO SMOOTHLY ON THURSDAY FOR A PASSENGER GOING THROUGH SECURITY AT THE ALBUQUERQUE SUNPORT. TSA AGENTS FOUND A LOADED GUN IN THE PASSENGER’S CARRY-ON BAG DURING X-RAY SCREENING. THE TSA ALERTED ALBUQUERQUE POLICE, WHO INTERVIEWED THE PASSENGER AND CONFISCATED THE WEAPON.
THAT PASSENGER WAS LATER ALLOWED TO FLY OUT OF THE SUNPORT. ANYONE BRINGING A FIREARM TO AN AIRPORT SECURITY CHECKPOINT CAN BE FINED UP TO 13-THOUSAND DOLLARS.
