Man arrested after explosive found in luggage at US airport

FBI agents have arrested a man who allegedly brought an explosive device to a Pennsylvania airport on Monday.

Mark Muffley, 40, is accused of putting the device in his checked bag for a flight to Orlando, Florida.

He fled the airport after his name was called over the loud speaker, agents say, and was arrested at home later that evening.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials say they spotted the device during a routine screening.

Sounds like a domestic terrorist was stopped, thank heavens. We need to be on the lookout for loons like this, they are everywhere it seems these days.
