TSA denies removing a diaper
The Transportation Security Administration has denied that its agents required a 95-year-old woman to remove her adult diaper before allowing her to pass a screening checkpoint at Northwest Florida Regional Airport.
The widely publicized incident brought a strong response from bloggers.
Said the TSA in a statement:
"While every person and item must be screened before entering the secure boarding area, TSA works with passengers to resolve security alarms in a respectful and sensitive manner. We have reviewed the circumstances involving this screening and determined that our officers acted professionally, according to proper procedure and did not require this passenger to remove an adult diaper."
