A suspect was arrested at LAX today after airport screeners noticed "wires" coming from the man's clothing during a security check. They later found what is being described as a "metal object" in the man's rectum. The incident began shortly before 6 a.m. at Terminal One.
The investigation is being conducted by the LAPD, the FBI and the Transportation Security Administration, Lowe said.
Officials say the U.S. Airways ticketed passenger was going through a screening machine when "he set off the alarms."
Maybe he was just smugglin' diamonds!
Pardon me for being stupid or naive, or whatever, but what would one carry in their rectum with wires protruding? I mean, other than a bomb (and that seems like a pretty uncomfortable place to carry one).
