FLORIDA (Woman gets 380 cal. Ruger GUN on plane Flight) Tells TSA after she lands
At less than six inches and just under 10 ounces, the Ruger .380 is considered by gun owners to be a great little pocket pistol.
So small, in fact, that you can sometimes get one onto an airplane.
D'oh!
Yep, the New York Daily News reports that a woman flew 938 miles from Orlando, Fla., to Newark, N.J., on Thursday with a loaded .380 in her purse. United flight 15 was airborne before she realized what she'd done—and airport screeners had missed. How the Daily News said it unfolded:
She didn't tell anyone on the plane about the weapon during the flight, which left Florida at 8:19 a.m.But when she landed at Newark Airport at 10:24, she immediately told a Port Authority police officer.
The newspaper identified the woman as a 37-year-old Orlando firefighter. New Jersey officials called Florida authorities, but the Daily News says the Essex County prosecutor declined to prosecute the woman because she self-reported the incident.
"She was visibly upset. She said she had a license to carry it and just forgot it," said Al Della Fave, Port Authority police spokesman. "The [Port Authority] officer took possession of the handgun and made it safe."
The Transportation Security Administration, meanwhile, had no immediate answers.
"TSA is aware of this situation and is reviewing the circumstances," said Lisa Farbstein, a spokeswoman for the agency told the Daily News.
FILMMAKER (GOES to Federal Prison) Nakoula Basseley Probation Violation
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The mystery surrounding the man behind the crudely produced anti-Islamic video that sparked violence in the Middle East deepened when he appeared in court and identified himself by yet another name.
Arrested on Thursday after authorities said he violated his probation from a 2010 check fraud conviction, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula told a judge his real name was Mark Basseley Youseff. He said he'd been using that name since 2002, even though he went by Nakoula in his fraud case.
The full story about Nakoula and the video "Innocence of Muslims" still isn't known more than two weeks after violence erupted in Egypt and Libya, where Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others were killed in Benghazi. Violence related to the film has since spread, killing dozens more.
Citing a lengthy pattern of deception and the potential to flee, U.S. Central District Chief Magistrate Judge Suzanne Segal ordered Nakoula to remain in prison without bond until another judge can hold a hearing to determine if he broke the terms of his probation.
"The court has a lack of trust in this defendant at this time," Segal said.
Prosecutors noted Nakoula had eight probation violations, including lying to his probation officers and using aliases. He could face new charges that carry a maximum two-year prison term.

Police have identified a man who was fatally shot Wednesday outside a north-side fast-food restaurant.
Police identifed the man as Jose Carlos Gonzales, 29.
Gonzales was shot shortly after 5 p.m. in the parking lot of Eegee's, 3872 N. Oracle Road, said Sgt. Chris Widmer, a Tucson Police Department spokesman.
The shooter and Gonzales had arrived in the parking lot in separate vehicles. Both men met in the parking lot and a fight broke out. One of the men pulled out a gun and fired, Widmer said.
Witnesses told investigators that the shooter ran south on Oracle, leaving his vehicle in the parking lot. Detectives have identified a person of interest in the shooting, but his name was not released Thursday.
The vehicle that Gonzales had been in had other occupants who drove off, Widmer said. They struck another vehicle as they left, but no injuries were reported from that incident.
A police helicopter and canine units scoured the surrounding neighborhood in search of the shooter, but police did not find him.
Detectives were working to gather information about how the victim and suspect knew each other, and what the shooter's motive was.

A man police say is a serial robber has struck again and this time there’s a clear surveillance photo.
The man is suspected of robbing Car Cash Pawn Stars, 3540 N. Oracle Road, near West Prince Road, about 6:15 Monday evening. He entered the store and looked around before pulling a handgun on the employee and ordering the worker to the floor, said Sgt. Chris Widmer, a spokesman for the Tucson Police Department.
“The employee was able to activate the business’ alarm system as the robbery started,” Widmer said.
The suspect tied up the employee and then began gathering merchandise, but fled empty handed when police officers arrived.
Detectives believe the gunman has been involved in at least four other armed robberies since July. He is described as 18 to 22 years old, standing 5-foot6 to 5-foot-9 and weighing between 140 and 160 pounds.
Anyone with information should call 911 or 88-CRIME.
