The Transportation Security Administration performed a security sweep of a Delta Air Lines plane at Orlando International Airport last night after an inch-and-a-half long knife blade was found on board.
The blade, which appeared to be a piece of a broken knife, was found by a passenger on Delta Flight 1293 on its way from New York's John F. Kennedy Airport to Orlando, said TSA spokeswoman Sari Koshetz.
The passenger then alerted the flight crew, who called TSA. All of the passengers were allowed to exit the plane and leave the airport, Koshetz said. "It's unusual," Koshetz said of the incident. "We didn't consider it a threat in any way. We ensured the plane was safe for future passengers."

Police investigating two works bomb explosions (Illinois)
Monday, February 12, 2007
GALESBURG - Galesburg police are investigating two works bomb explosions reported at 5:37 p.m. Sunday. Dispatchers received several calls regarding "shots fired" in the 200 block of Lincoln Street. Investigating officers found remnants of two exploded works bombs and a live works bomb in the road in front of 228 Fulton St. Firefighters used a pike pole to release pressure from the plastic bottle before disposing of it.
A works bomb is a homemade bomb made from common household ingredients. Although these types of bombs do not cause flames or produce a tremendous amount of heat, they can cause burns or injury to the eyes of a person.
