WASHINGTON — Despite repeated warnings about prohibited items at U.S. airports, the problem persists and innocent mistakes may not be the only reason.
"Just a month or two ago, a record number of firearms were seized in carry-on luggage going onto airplanes here, and so they're still very, very much a job for aviation security personnel in this country,” said Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson at a news conference Friday at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
