TSA finds man with a live turtle concealed in his pants at a New Jersey airport
A Pennsylvania man was found to have a live turtle hidden in his pants while going through security at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey.
When questioned further, the man reached into his pants and pulled out the turtle, which was about 5 inches (12 centimeters) long and wrapped in a small blue towel. He said it was a red-ear slider turtle, a species that is popular as a pet.
The man - whose name was not released - was escorted from the checkpoint area by Port Authority police and ended up missing his flight. The turtle was confiscated, and it's not clear if the turtle was the man's pet or why he had it in his pants.
He said the incident remains under investigation, and it wasn't clear if the man would face any charges or penalties.
