TSA Stops Person With Suspicious Items
April 01, 2008 6:42 PM
ABC News' Jason Ryan and Matt Hosford Report: A Jamaican national was stopped and arrested at the Orlando airport today, found to have components which could be used to make a pipe bomb.
The Transportation Security Administration, the FBI and local authorities responded to the scene. The FBI is currently analyzing the recovered items.
The person being investigated was identified by a TSA behavioral detection officer when the officer noticed certain tell tale signs that raised suspicion.
The TSA officer then asked law enforcement to intervene. The uniformed TSA officer was working in the front of the airport, so the suspect was apprehended long before he arrived at the airport's security checkpoint.
The FBI continues to investigate the situation. Airport operations have returned to normal.

Uh, whatever it takes to justify that Homeland Security budget and the private prison industrial complex. Wall st. does not look kindly to companies that fail to meet their quotas.
