While googling for more info if any, at top I saw a three hour old story on MIA having less security hassles and some about the Wednesday hot tar fire at a private control tower (1 hurt). After I read about it I figure let’s take a look at the security hassles one, wouldn’t that be ironic... poof, gone. No lie.

Dang you are FAST - LOL! Another link to add to your original post.

MIAMI - A Miami International Airport terminal was evacuated early Monday after authorities found what appeared to be an explosive device at a security checkpoint.

"A possible explosive device showed up in an X-ray machine at the checkpoint," airport spokesman Greg Chin said. He said the Miami-Dade bomb squad was investigating and had no further information.

Passengers were evacuated from Terminal F, which serves United Airlines domestic and international flights.

Concourse F at Miami International Airport was being evacuated this morning, and the bomb squad was being called to the scene to investigate a report of a possible explosive device. Hundreds of people reportedly were removed from the concourse.

The evacuation began shortly after 6 a.m., according to early reports.

Thanks for the thread, Prisoner6. I had people calling in and asking me about this today.

Why do people seem to always come to me for information? LOL!...

The phones are down at the airport, but were down before the bomb scare happened.

That's not very reassuring . . .

I was in the car this morning and heard on all places the Err America station (Jim Defedi Show) that it turned out to be an urn with ashes in which a passenger was taking home to Latin America. Given the source, I don’t know if it is true.
