KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - A 26-year-old man has pleaded guilty to charges stemming from having a loaded handgun in his carry-on bag at Kansas City International Airport.
Anthony Winn, of Kansas City, pleaded guilty Friday to having a concealed weapon in his luggage.
Winn was stopped at the airport on December 28 as he tried to board a flight to Minneapolis. Police conducted a search after the screener noticed the handgun. Officers also reported finding about $4,900 in Winn's pants pocket and more than $26,000 in the pockets of three pairs of jeans in the bag.
