The Orlando Sentinel seems to take the wind out of this...

'Suspicious items' stall flight

Orlando - An Atlanta-bound Delta Air Lines flight at Orlando International Airport was delayed about three hours Thursday morning after security officials detained 12 people in two families who they said were carrying "suspicious items."

Some passengers who were already seated on the flight were instructed to get off the plane so officials could re-screen every person and package aboard the aircraft, the Transportation Security Administration said.

An agent at the FBI's Tampa office said the suspicious items turned out to be a bottle that had been covered with tape to prevent leaking. The flight ultimately took off about 10:20 a.m. without the two families, who were still undergoing FBI questioning. They were ultimately released.

"It was all benign," said Dave Couvertier, the FBI agent.

Yes, I read the brief blurb that the Sentinel posted about this story.

But I also do not believe in the truthfulness or in the investigative skills of the staff of the Orlando Sentinel.

At one time, the Sentinel was worth reading. It no longer is.
