Not even officers from Israeli security service Shin Bet can escape the scourge of lost luggage it seems.

 

A bag belonging to agents travelling with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was mistakenly put on a flight from New York to Los Angeles, not to Washington.

 

Alarmingly the bag contained four 9mm Glock handguns, which are now missing.

 

A Shin Bet spokesman told the AP news agency that it is not known whether the guns went missing before or after the luggage was put on the wrong flight.

 

The Israeli officers were accompanying Mr Netanyahu to Washington for White House talks with President Barack Obama.

 

Checked in

 

NBC News reported that the handguns had, in accordance with security procedures at New York's John F Kennedy airport, been placed inside checked luggage.

 

The luggage was then supposed to be put on a connecting flight to Washington however, American Airlines workers at the airport instead sent it right across the country to LAX in Los Angeles.

 

By the time the luggage was located and recovered, the guns had disappeared, and are presumed to have been stolen.

 

Port Authority police in New York are currently investigating whether the weapons went missing before or after the suitcase was transferred to LAX, NBC News has reported.

 

One source told NBC that the suitcase was inspected and cleared for shipment by Transportation Security Administration screeners who put a seal over the bag at Kennedy Airport.

 

The Glock 9mm is a powerful semi-automatic used by law enforcement and security organisations around the world.

 

Supposedly sending luggage to the wrong destination after it's been pilfered is a common ploy by baggage handlers

Better call Ziva from NCIS

Ziva would quickly solve this one ....with a DNA match that takes only 5-10min to do

[Maksim 1,504]

wow.

 

Even Netanyahu's bodyguards were unarmed on the flight? I am surprised he flew commercial and not via private jet.... or just his body guards.

 

El Al flies direct to DC.

Glock should give them free guns for the celebrity endorsement from Netanyahu

 

Interesting about Glock is that some years ago Glock himself was atacked and he beat up his attacker

Interesting thing about that article is that a Glock is a $75 gun

That's actually pretty surprising considering tagged bags with firearms typically get special attention. I guess this one got the OTHER kind of special attention.

El Al flies direct to DC.

 

I believe he went to NY first to hear what Queen Elizabeth had to say. There were most likely a Secret Service detail on the plane with him to DC.

I think IRAN was involved...

WTT: powerful semiautomatic 9mm Glock for any 1911.
