China Scene: North

Man jailed for lying he had drugs, guns at airport

A man was put behind bars for five days for saying he was carrying drugs and guns minutes before he was to board a flight at the Tianjin Airport last week.

Frustrated at the long queue in front of him at the airport's security check, the man screamed he was carrying drugs and guns. The crowd immediately dispersed from the scene, and the man was taken in for questioning.
