    Looks like someone got a rather unpleasant weekend of it over a paperwork snafu:

    The incident happened around midday today.
    The man was passing through security screening when a suspicious object was detected in his hand luggage. On further examination it was found to be a handgun.
    He was arrested and taken to Santry Garda Station where he is being held under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act.

    He denied all knowledge of the gun according to the media this morning.

    Speculation was that a 'friend' had put the gun in his luggage as a prank !

    With friends like that, etc....
