Microphone causes airport scare

LOS ANGELES (AP) - June 6, 2012

Is this thing on?

A microphone caused a scare at LAX yesterday.

Authorities report a suspicious bag triggered a partial evacuation of a terminal at Los Angeles International Airport.

It turns out it was just a mic in a case.

The bomb squad moved the item to a safe area, so flights could resume.

Airport officials say the owner of the luggage was initially detained, but was later released to continue traveling.
