The 54-year-old male passenger who allegedly brandished a "bladed weapon" at Iloilo International Airport on Wednesday may face charges, the Iloilo Provincial Police Office (IPPO) said. According to the Department of Transportation's Office of Transportation Security, one of its security screening officers in the provincial airport flagged a prohibited item inside the passenger’s bag, which called for a secondary screening. He then took out a "bladed weapon," which prompted a response from police officers at the airport. The IPPO continues to coordinate with authorities in Cebu, where the passenger is confirmed to be a resident of, regarding his background. The IPPO is also helping the PNP-Aviation Security Group at the Iloilo International Airport in filing charges against the passenger.
