Security Firm out at Boston Airport

BOSTON, Massachusetts (CNN) -- The nation's largest airport security company will leave Boston's Logan International Airport in two weeks, under the terms of an agreement reached Friday with the Massachusetts Port Authority.

The agreement between Massport and Atlanta-based Argenbright Security rendered unnecessary a hearing on the matter which was scheduled for Friday.

While the agreement also calls for Argenbright to leave Hanscom Airfield in Bedford, the company could continue to provide security at other Massachusetts facilities such as Suffolk Downs horse track and the Hynes Convention Center.

The company has agreed to be out of all Massport properties by the end of the day on December 14, said Massport interim security chief John DiFava. He originally pulled Argenbright's license on November 15 because of several security lapses at Logan, but agreed to let the company stay on until the hearing.
