Boise Police: Traveler intentionally brought gun through TSA checkpoint

A Boise man has been arrested after police say he intentionally tried to bring a concealed gun through a TSA security checkpoint at the Boise Airport.

Around 1:00 p.m. Monday, Boise Police officers assigned to the airport were alerted by TSA screeners to the discovery of an unloaded handgun that had been intentionally concealed in a passenger’s checked luggage, according to a Boise Police news release.

The passenger was identified as Milan Reskovic, 59.

“Based on the suspect’s willful concealment of the firearm and the fact that the suspect did not declare the firearm at check-in, he was charged with a felony (of trying to bring a weapon aboard an aircraft) and booked into the Ada County Jail,” the release said.

No additional information was available.
