PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - TSA agents once again stopped a passenger with a loaded gun from boarding a plane at Pittsburgh International Airport.

Officials say on Friday, March 15, a Bethel Park man had a loaded handgun with six bullets in his carry-on. The man also allegedly did not have a valid permit to carry a firearm.
