Snowglobe Forces Evacuation At Bradley Airport
WINDSOR LOCKS, Conn. (AP) -- State police say a harmless snowglobe in a carryon bag caused a partial evacuation at Bradley International Airport.
State police Lt. J. Paul Vance says a Transportation Security Administration worker spotted something that looked suspicious while screening bags and alerted state police shortly before 11 a.m. Sunday.
Vance says Terminal A was evacuated as a precaution but was reopened about 45 minutes later, after authorities determined the snowglobe did not contain explosives and was not a danger.
