It caused a commotion but eventually caught the flight

The people of the US Transportation Security Administration at Boston airport couldn't believe their eyes when, during screening, they spotted... a sword in a cane.

The remarkable part of the whole story, of course, is that the owner of the cane, as claimed, had no idea of the existence of the sword in his cane.

Yesterday @TSA officers @BostonLogan discovered this hidden blade inside of a cane. When questioned by @MassStatePolice the man claimed he had no idea the blade was in there.??♂️After surrendering the cane, he was cleared to continue. #travelfail pic.twitter.com/Toqo0OORYZ

The New England TSA - who "tweeted" the controversial photo from Logan Airport - said that "the passenger recently purchased the cane and did not know it contained a sword inside, until it was found by security personnel".

The sword was of course turned over to Massachusetts police and the passenger, who inadvertently caused this disturbance, was given permission to catch his flight to New York.
