This morning, a LaGuardia Airport evacuation took place as one man entered the building carrying a fake bomb. Although the situation was quickly controlled, the evacuation caused LaGuardia Airport delays.

The man who caused all this in the New York airport was 32-year-old Scott McGann. McGann checked in for a flight at LGA at am and he was acting strange.  Airport security intervened and they found inside the man’s bag a device with batteries and wires that police though was meant to look like a bomb.

Now McGann faces charges of trying to plant a fake bomb and making terrorist threats.
