AP via The Houston Chronicle: Gun in briefcase trips up McAllen senator at airport

A South Texas lawmaker detained by police after bringing a handgun through an airport metal detector said Monday he made a mistake and that he had a permit to carry the weapon.

Sen. Juan Hinojosa, D-McAllen, was found with a 9 mm handgun in his briefcase as he passed through security at Miller International Aiport in McAllen, Harlingen television station KGBT reported. Airport security discovered the weapon and Hinojosa was taken to the McAllen Police Department before being released.


Mr. Hinojosa claims he forgot about the firearm, putting it in the briefcase after cleaning out his truck.
