From the Las Vegas Sun:
A 9-year-old Minneapolis runaway went through security and boarded a plane at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport without a ticket, an airport spokesman said Sunday.
Security officials screened the boy at airport shortly after 10:30 a.m. Thursday after he arrived via light rail, Metropolitan Airports Commission spokesman Patrick Hogan said. The boy then boarded a Delta flight that left for Las Vegas at 11:15 a.m.
The flight was not full, Hogan said, and the flight crew became suspicious midflight because the boy was not on their list of unattended minors. The crew contacted Metro Police, who met them upon landing and transferred the boy to child protection services, Hogan said. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2013/oct/06/us-boy-sneaks-on-plane/
The TSA targets all sorts of people: kids in wheelchairs, elderly women, nuns and other threatening people.
But an unaccompanied minor doesn't draw their attention?
Pathetic government workers.
