Logan gate area evacuated after security breach; FAA security boss reassigned

The Associated Press

      BOSTON (AP) The Federal Aviation Administration has reassigned the
director of its security field office at Logan International Airport,
where two of the hijacked planes in the Sept.  11 terrorist attacks
departed. 

      Mary Carol Turano was removed Friday from her post in charge of 15
field agents who test airport security.  She was transferred to the FAA
regional office in Burlington, where she will oversee hiring of security
personnel in New England. 

      FAA spokesman Jim Peters refused to cite reasons for the transfer. 
"She has been reassigned," he said.  "It's a personnel matter and we're
not going to discuss it."

      Turano did not return a telephone call seeking comment Saturday. 

      A gate area at Logan was evacuated Saturday morning after two
ticketed passengers entered without going through metal detectors. 

      The pair were allowed into the area through an emergency exit by a
private security guard.  They were detained by state police, questioned,
then released, said Jose Juves, spokesman for Massachusetts Port
Authority.  He declined to give further details. 

      Passengers were allowed to re-enter the US Airways gate area after
authorities swept it for bombs. 

      On Sept.  11, the two planes hijacked out of Boston slammed into
the twin towers of the World Trade Center. 

      Last week, despite heightened security, law enforcement officials
carried a buck knife and a pocket full of bullets through Logan security
checkpoints.  According to a Boston Globe review of 10 years of FAA
data, Logan had more real or fake weapons smuggled through security than
any other airport. 

      Acting Gov.  Jane Swift is calling in the National Guard to beef
up security, and the Massachusetts Port Authority said it has increased
the presence of uniformed officers at all security checkpoints.
