Japanese airport police found 30 bullets in an American Airlines crewmember's carry-on bag and said Wednesday that the flight attendant apparently carried them through his security checks at U.S. airports. Police at Tokyo's Narita International Airport seized the bullets, loaded in two magazines, after finding them Saturday during a security check before the man boarded his duty flight back to the U.S. Keeping bullets in carry-on bags on flights is illegal under U.S. law. Police are still investigating why the bullets were undetected when he arrived at Narita and went through customs. The airline also declined to comment on how a crewmember might have walked through U.S. security checks.
