That’s when a TSA agent at Newark-Liberty International Airport spotted two hand grenades inside a passenger’s carry-on bag. Turns out the grenades were inert replicas and meant to be used as gearshift knobs in a car.

Investigators are looking into reports of lasers being pointed at planes landing at Newark Liberty Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration received nearly a dozen reports from pilots this week, with six coming on Wednesday alone.
