ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The city's airport will begin screening all employees who enter secure areas, action that follows the arrest of baggage handlers accused of smuggling guns onto a commercial flight, officials said Wednesday.
Orlando International Airport joins the company of Miami, the only other U.S. airport to physically screen all employees who can enter secure areas. Miami began the practice in 1999 after its own smuggling incident.
Airport officials unanimously approved $7 million in security plans Wednesday.
