| Luggage Explosion at Bush Intercontinental |
| 2010-05-04 |
| Must be those damn Tea Partiers again, ticked off about Obamacare... A small explosion occurred in a piece of luggage at Bush Intercontinental Airport, according to officials. No injuries were reported. Smoke was seen coming from the luggage shortly after it was unloaded off a jet around 2:15 p.m. Tuesday, according to the Houston Airport System. The jet had just landed at the airport from Amsterdam. The Pantybomber's luggage finally caught up with him? Ground crews said they noticed something strange about a blue suitcase and were working to remove it when they heard a "pop" and smoke came pouring from it, according to an airport spokeswoman. While no injuries were reported, several agencies, including the Houston Fire Department, were called to the scene. The flight number and airline on which the luggage was carried was not immediately confirmed, and no further information was available. The plane in the picture accompanying the article is painted KLM blue, however. |
