An MP3 player wrapped around a soda can sparked a bomb scare at Phoenix
Sky Harbor International Airport Wednesday morning, said an official
with the Transportation Security Administration.
The can was found in the cabin of America West Airlines flight 44 from
Phoenix to Washington, D.C.
The bomb squad was called in and a bomb-sniffing dog was taken aboard
the plane.
All 117 passengers were safely evacuated. They will all be re-screened
before they are allowed back on a plane to continue on to Washington.
Investigators are looking into how the can came to be aboard the plane.
