TSA: Traveler Stopped For Carrying 98 Bullets Onto Airplane At BWI

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- TSA agents say they stopped a traveler at BWI Airport on Monday who was carrying 98 bullets onto an airplane.

"There's no actual need to carry 98 bullets onto an airplane--and of course ammunition is not allowed to be carried onto a plane. @TSA at @BWI_Airport stopped a traveler with these bullets at one of the checkpoints yesterday. Know what's in your carry-on bag. #ProhibitedItemsWeek"
