Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers intercepted two guns in three days at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport—one on Friday, Feb. 14 and one on Sunday, Feb. 17.
A McGaheysville, Va., man was stopped with a 9mm handgun loaded with six bullets along with six additional accessible bullets in a gun magazine on Friday, Feb. 14. Then on Sunday, Feb. 17, a New Hampshire man was stopped with a 9mm handgun along with an accessible gun magazine that was loaded with 15 bullets.
When TSA officers detected the guns via X-ray at the checkpoint, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police were notified, confiscated the weapons and issued a criminal citation to each individual.
