A Bay Area man may be facing charges in Southern California for allegedly showing a gun at Los Angeles International Airport Friday night.
This comes exactly one week after a gunman shot and killed a TSA agent there.
The incident happened around 9 p.m. Friday. Authorities said the suspect is a 27-year-old man from San Jose, whose name is not being released.
Police said after landing in Los Angeles, he took out a handgun out of his checked bag. Witnesses called police, who discovered a small, unloaded handgun.
It turns out, however, the man had declared that gun in his luggage, so he had followed the law. He was arrested on a charge of brandishing a gun and then released without being booked.
It is now up to the city attorney whether any charges will be filed.
