(San Francisco-AP) -- Thousands of people were evacuated from a United terminal at San Francisco International Airport this morning after a man left a security gate with explosive residue on his shoes.

Airport spokesman Mike McCarron says a check of the man's sneakers showed some type of explosive residue. He said it could have just been from fireworks. The man walked away before the investigation could be completed.

The man has not been found.

McCarron says domestic gates 61 to 89 have been affected -- and all flights at those gates are being held.

Hmmmmm.....let's see.....

The airport shuts down and the suspect walks out. Wow, I feel so safe with these new security procedures.

So we're looking for a barefoot guy in the airport.

Shouldn't be too hard to find. Anybody got any thumbtacks?
