Parents Arrested After Infant 'Dropped A Bomb' In Airport

TSA May Have Stepped In It This Time

ANN April 1st Special Edition: The parents of a 7-month-old baby girl were detained at MCO this week after TSA agents overheard them refer to a "bomb" in reference to their child.  A TSA task force proceeded to strip-search and interrogate the terrified family only to learn that the child had a dirty diaper.

"We were handcuffed and forced to lay on the ground while bomb dogs sniffed our child!" exclaimed the mother.  All three were taken to a secure location where they were strip searched and scanned by advanced imaging systems.

"Following our very public TSA protocols, we swabbed every piece of clothing and probed every orifice." said a TSA spokesperson. "After spending hours of work and thousands of taxpayer dollars on the investigation, none of the samples we took tested positive for explosives."

The TSA did report that several employees felt nauseated and were treated at a local hospital after inspecting the infant.  Eyewitnesses at the time of the incident reported smelling a foul odor as well.

"They couldn't handle a little poop!" the father told reporters.  "It wouldn't have been so bad if they'd just let us change her in the first place.  Still, I've smelled worse."

"When she drops a bomb, you definitely know it!" joked the father.  Upon hearing their trigger word, the TSA immediately re-arrested him for further inspection and questioning.
