How Many Times Do We Have To Tell You? Watch What's In Your Carry-On

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good Morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. An airline passenger in Bellingham, Wash. placed a marijuana grinder in a carry-on bag. What happened next leads us to offer advice. If you're going to pack your pot grinder in your carry-on, it might be better if the grinder was not shaped like a hand grenade. The bomb-shaped device forced an evacuation and delayed flights, but the passenger and his luggage finally flew. In Washington state, after all, recreational marijuana is legal. It's MORNING EDITION.
