A 40-year-old Pennsylvania man has been taken into custody by the FBI after attempting to smuggle an explosive device onto an Allegiant flight.

Officials say the device was hidden in a checked bag at Lehigh Valley International Airport and contained multiple fuses. ABC news reported.

Mark Muffley of Lansford Pennsylvania was about to take an Allegiant flight from Eastern Pennsylvania to Sanford, Florida.

The bag triggered an alarm before being loaded onto the plane, and the TSA found a “round compound” hidden in the luggage’s lining, the FBI said.

Once found, Muffley was summoned through the airport’s public system to come to the security desk, minutes later security cameras showed him exiting the airport.

Police, the FBI and bomb experts responded to the airport. That says an airport spokesman WFMZ that part of the main terminal was closed off around 11:15 a.m. while authorities investigated a “suspicious package.”

More to come.
