Security Sweep at Salt Lake City Airport
KSL radio, Salt Lake City | Me

Posted on 12/11/2001 12:20:05 PM PST by Lokibob

69 warrants issued for various security reasons, arrests made.

The airport workers arrested apparently were using phony SSN's, illegal immigrants, or had warrents against them.

Salt Lake City airport is the first airport in the country for this type security sweep.

Law enforcement is holding a press briefing right now.

It was 271 people found to have provided false info and 69 people arrested. This was out of a total of 9,000 employees. These employees worked in the security areas and must have lied on their security forms. This really is a small percentage of the total work force.

i just heard on kutv that they screened 9000 and arrested 69 out of an airport workforce of over 20,000.

An employees union for the workers at SFO(San Francisco) has filed a pre-emptive lawsuit to prevent background investigations of SFO workers.

The 9,000 were people that worked in the security area and had filled out the FAA security form.

Good job. Hope the trend catches on in other airports. The ACLU will probably find a reason to sue.

"This really is a small percentage of the total work force.

One terrorist is one to many.
