Security managers at Milwaukee’s airport hope this isn’t a trend.
TSA agents say they’ve seized 20 guns at the airport’s checkpoints so far this year. That’s up from 11 in 2020 and 16 back in 2019. Most of the people caught with a gun say they simply forgot it was in their bag. Carrying a gun into the airport usually ends with a four-thousand-dollar fine and could lose some people some of their flying privileges.
