Dulles terminal partially evacuated due to suspicious cargo

Washington (CNN) -- Several gates inside a terminal at Washington Dulles International Airport were evacuated Saturday after a bomb-sniffing dog alerted to cargo that was being loaded onto an aircraft, a Transportation Security Administration spokesman said.

The gates were evacuated out of an abundance of caution, TSA's Greg Soule said.

An ordnance team from Virginia State Police was on the scene.

1. Gotta love those dogs.
If it turns out to be something, I hope they get extra special treats.

2. Good dog!
The hotel I stayed in when I went to New York City in June had a bomb dog on premises at all times. The pup I saw most was a yellow Lab, whom I promptly fell in love with.

All good thoughts go out to the East Coast over the next 48 hours...

:hug:

4. Did Cheney's pacemaker set it off while he was stashed in a coffin in cargo?
