Sure, but you and your associates make the initial determination that it is worthy of referral to a law enforcement officer. You look into a bag, either with X-ray or with your naked eyes, and you look at the things in that bag. You decide which things are worthy of further examination and which can be ignored. You never know from sight if something is a toy or a real gun, a bag of cocaine or a bag of sugar.

As Ron told us, whether you see something that looks like a weapon, an explosive, an incendiary, or an illegal drug, you contact a supervisor. No law enforcement determination of what a substance is happens unless you initiate the process. Right?
