From NBC10 Philadelphia - A day after a flight attendant's gun accidentally went off in Philadelphia International Airport more information about the gun's owner serviced Monday. The regional airline flight attendant who says she forgot she had a loaded weapon in her luggage when she arrived for work Sunday morning faced a disorderly conduct charge while the cop who accidentally fired the handgun was on desk duty Monday. The West Chester, Pa. woman told investigators she forgot she had the loaded .38-caliber handgun in her carry-on as she passed through airport security at Terminal C around 6:50 a.m., according to Philadelphia Police. A US Airways spokesman says that a police officer was called over to check out the gun and that's when it accidentally discharged when he pulled the trigger. The bullet went into a TSA break room where an employee was sitting but luckily no one was injured, police said. Police say that Luby had a license to carry the loaded weapon. Police confiscated the gun and said it was up to the county that issued Luby the permit if she would get the handgun back Read more
