Somebody Stuck a Knife in my Book!

They had a little excitement at Detroit's airport tonight. Somebody tried to get on a flight with a knife:

A man with a one-way ticket to Yemen attempted to board a plane with a knife hidden in a book, authorities said.

Mohammed Ghanem, 21, of Hamtramck, was jailed Saturday on $500,000 after being arraigned on a charge of possessing a weapon in the sterile area of an airport.

Ghanem was arrested Thursday at Detroit Metropolitan Airport after Transportation Security Administration officers detected the knife "artfully concealed" in the book, airport spokesman Michael Conway said.

Someone had carved out the inside of the book and placed the knife inside it, said Ghanem's attorney, Nabih Ayad.

"He said he didn't know where the knife came from," Ayad told the Detroit Free Press.

Don't you hate it when someone carves a hole in your book and puts a knife in there? Especially right before your one-way flight to Yemen?

I hate it when that happens.
