MINNEAPOLIS - Daryl Miller didn't make it through airport security because
he couldn't keep his pants on.
Airport police said a security screener was waving a metal-detecting wand
over Miller's pants area on Friday when Miller pulled his shorts down to
his ankles. He wasn't wearing any underwear.
Miller then said, "There, how do you like your job," thus ending the
screening, according to the police report. He was charged with indecent
exposure and released on $300 bail.
...
"This person exposed themself in a public area, a clear violation of the
law, and we needed to take some action on that, otherwise everybody would
be dropping their pants," Christenson said.
