To the naked eye, it looked like just another iPod carrier. But during X-ray screening, Tampa (Fla.) TSO Denise Keough observed what appeared to be brass knuckles. A search of the bag revealed a false bottom inside the iPod box (pictured), where the prohibited item was artfully concealed. Airport police arrested the passenger for carrying a concealed weapon.
