Feds Detain L.A. Counterterrorism Chief (ex-ABC reporter had gun)

LOS ANGELES - The head of the Police Department's counterterrorism bureau was detained by federal authorities Thursday after trying to board a flight at Los Angeles International Airport with a loaded handgun in his carryon luggage.

John Miller, an ABC-TV reporter before he was hired for the security job, was off duty and heading to New York with his family when Transportation Security Administration officials discovered the .38-caliber handgun in his bag, TSA spokesman Nico Melendez said.

Miller is authorized to carry the weapon, but failed to disclose he was traveling with the gun.

"He knows the airport procedures. ... He didn't realize he had it," said Lt. Horace Frank, an aide to Miller. "It was an oversight."

when there was yhat last fake terra threat at LAX. When did he join the police and why did he quit reporting? He is the one that had the last interview with UBL right?

Not too smart not knowing you are packing a 38! :crazy:
