Airport security in Australia was on the ball for this one:
An emergency was declared at the airport in Mackay, 500 miles north of Brisbane in tropical Queensland state, after airport staff heard a strange noise coming from the bin, Australian Broadcasting Corporation radio said on Monday.
“It was rather disconcerting when the rubbish bin started humming furiously,” cafeteria manager Lynne Bryant said.
Police evacuated the terminal and were about to call in bomb experts when an unidentified passenger came forward to identify the contents of a package left in the bin.
I’m sure John Ashcroft would be suitably appalled and call for a criminal investigation.
