1-22-20 gun confiscated at milwaukee airport

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The Transportation Security Administration said officials stopped a Wisconsin man with a loaded gun while going through a checkpoint at Mitchell International Airport. The TSA said its officers saw the .38-caliber handgun loaded with six bullets when the man removed his coat and placed it on a conveyor belt to walk through a X-ray machine on Tuesday. The man, a Mequon resident whose name was not released, told security he didn’t know he was carrying a loaded gun because he thought it was in a different jacket. Milwaukee County sheriff’s deputies cited him on state weapons charges.
