Sex-aid excuse bombs with airport security
Man traveling with mother says pump is a grenade
CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) — Cook County prosecutors say a 29-year-old man
traveling with his mother desperately didn’t want her to know he’d
packed a sexual aid for their trip to Turkey.
So he told security it was a bomb, officials said.
Madin Azad Amin, 29, of Skokie, Illinois, was stopped August 16 after
guards found an object in his baggage that resembled a grenade,
prosecutors said.
When officers asked him to identify it, Amin said it was a bomb, said
Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney Lorraine Scaduto.
He later told officials he’d lied about the item because his mother was
nearby and he didn’t want her to hear that it was part of a penis pump,
Scaduto said.
