[quote:Anonymous Coward 128348:MV8yNzk1NDZfNDg4Mzg5MV84QjA4REI3Qw==] US airport in 'liquid bomb' alert A West Virginia airport has been evacuated after a suspect bottle of liquid was discovered in a passenger's carry-on luggage, officials say. The bottle was subjected to a swab test and a sniffer dog examination and both tested positive for explosives. A security guard first spotted the bottle in the bag, Tri-State Airport authority chief Jim Booton said. Officials say the woman is of Pakistani origin and was travelling on a one-way ticket to Charlotte, North Carolina. Chris Yates from Jane's Aviation told the BBC that both tests were extremely sensitive. The likelihood that a container that had not come into contact with explosives would come up positive on both tests was extremely low, he said. The incident comes a week after UK intelligence officers say they foiled a plot to blow up planes using liquid explosives. [/quote]
