Potential security breach closes Hopkins' concourses

A potential security breach shut down two concourses at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport today.

Concourses C and D were closed at about 2:45 p.m. when readings on a passenger going through security indicated possible explosives, reported WKYC TV 3. The passenger was apprehended after passing through security and cooperated fully with authorities.

According to WKYC, the concourses, which are used by Northwest and Continetal, were searched by law enforcement and nothing was found.

Both concourses are expected to re-open at 7 p.m.

Thanx, Bux, I did put out the story that the airport was to reopen at 7:00 and it was nothing serious.

Helluva day for that to happen, though
