Security Alert: Airport Screener Jacket Found at Local Store
12/22/2006

Disturbing new evidence reveals a threat to our homeland security is worse than originally thought. The News Four WOAI Trouble Shooters first uncovered records last May showing 1400 airport security badges and uniforms are missing from airports here and across the country.

Now, new information obtained by Trouble Shooter Brian Collister shows a dramatic increase in the total number.

But that's not all the Trouble Shooters found.

A WOAI viewer contacted the Trouble Shooters because he found a TSA screener's jacket for sale at a local thrift store. Security experts fear TSA uniforms could help terrorists pull off an attack. Mike Martinez, who found the jacket, said he felt compelled to pull it off the rack. He told News 4 his main concern was for the safety and security of fellow Americans after what happened on 9-11.

The thrift store sale is also a violation of the Transportation Security Administration's policy, which requires "for reasons of security" any discarded uniform must have all distinctive markings removed.

Passenger held in Bulgaria for suspicious luggage
Friday December 22

SOFIA - Bulgarian police arrested a Russian man on Thursday for carrying suspicious objects in his luggage while checking in for a flight from the Black Sea city of Varna to Vienna, it said.

The luggage contained cables, batteries and a solid material which police said resembled components that might be used for a hand-made explosive device. The follow-up check showed the solid material was a substance similar to soap, not explosives. Experts were still working to fully determine its contents.

The Russian man, a member of a ship crew that had docked at Varna port, told investigators he believed he was the victim of "unfortunate joke" by crew members. "The Russian citizen is detained for 24 hours. Members of his crew will be questioned," police said in a statement. Police said the Austrian Airlines flight was delayed for 15 minutes, but took off to Vienna.

French film raises fresh fears over airport safety
Thu Dec 21, 2006

PARIS - A French television reporter managed to smuggle explosive material and knives onto American and French passenger planes apparently revealing serious flaws in security at French airports.

Appearing in a documentary made for state television due to be aired on Friday, the reporter has raised fresh questions about French air safety after accusations last month that it was too easy to gain access to aircraft at Paris' main airport.
