It’s not everyday that the TSA finds a training kit for military-improvised explosive devices packed into luggage.
But that’s exactly what TSA bag handlers discovered in a checked bag at the Honolulu airport. The items included detonators, blasting caps, detonating cord and C-4, the Henry Daily Herald reports.
The TSA evacuated the handling room, causing a delay in the screening process.
The identity of the traveler has not been revealed, nor has the motive for possessing the equipment.
“Please keep in mind that if an item looks like a real bomb, grenade, mine, etc., it is prohibited,” agency officials wrote on their blog.
