LAX officials eye security after dry ice bombs

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles International Airport officials plan to meet with law enforcement authorities to examine potential security enhancements after two dry ice bombs exploded in an alleged prank by an employee at the airport.


The meetings also will explore the handling and transport of dry ice and other hazardous materials and possible improvements to those procedures.


Arif Alikhan, deputy executive director for Homeland Security and Law Enforcement at Los Angeles World Airports, said Wednesday that such meetings are routine after such an incident and will look at lessons learned.


Dicarlo Bennett was arrested Tuesday and booked for possession of a destructive device near an aircraft. The 28-year-old is being held on $1 million bail.


Two bombs exploded Sunday night; one was found undetonated Monday.
