发帖数: 5093 | 1 Seven members of a cable TV crew were arrested at Newark Airport on Thursday
after trying to film themselves passing a fake explosive device through a
security checkpoint and onto a plane, according to reports.
The crew was working for the cable network CNBC, according to nj.com.
The fake explosive device was in a carry-on bag and never made it past
security, Transportation Security Administration spokesman Michael McCarthy
said.
“They failed, were caught and were arrested on multiple charges,” he said,
without elaborating on the charges.
The crew members could also be assessed civil penalties in the tens of
thousands of dollars, he said.
A law enforcement source told nj.com that the fake explosive consisted of a
piece of PVC pipe with wires sticking out of it.
Another source told the website that the crew was employed by Endemol Shine
Group, a Dutch production company that contracts with CNBC; Endemol also
produces MasterChef and The Biggest Loser.
“We are looking into the details of what happened as a matter of priority
and are in contact with relevant authorities on the ground,” a spokesperson
for Endemol Shine North America told nj.com.
“We sincerely apologize for any disruption caused.”
