... Sources tell NewsChannel 3 that when Assistant Federal Security Director Larry Kumjian passed through initial security last week he was asked to submit to an additional screening.

A secondary screening can be random or brought on by an alarm. Kumjian allegedly declined a second screening citing TSA protocol. Sources close to the investigation tell NewsChannel 3 that TSA agents typically do not "second screen" their own.

TSA released this statement: "A full investigation into this matter is currently underway. Disciplinary action will be taken, if necessary."

When asked if there was a breach in security, TSA said, "The individual in question was fully screened and there was no security breach."
