BOSTON (AP/WBZ NewsRadio) — The Transportation Security Administration says for the third time this month officials have discovered a loaded gun in a passenger's carry-on bag at Boston's airport.
TSA officers at Logan International Airport seized the gun when a Yarmouth man's belongings went through an X-ray machine last Friday.
The man was carrying a 9mm gun loaded with 10 bullets.
State Police spokesman David Procopio says the man will be summoned to appear in district court. No name was provided.
This incident follows a three day span earlier this month when TSA found two guns in travelers' luggage at Logan.
The TSA says travelers are not allowed to hold guns in their carry-on bags even if they have a gun permit.
It was the 15th gun found in passengers' luggage at Logan this year.
