Ok something about casually telling a TSA agent “I have an IED” made me laugh out loud 🤣

I’m a cop at a place I shouldn’t disclose on reddit. But it’s open to the general public. My very first arrest came from a person telling me they had a live grenade on them. He literally walked up to me and said, “I have a grenade on me.”

Everything else happened really fast. Because I had him repeat exactly what he said to me before I took him to the ground and 6 other officers showed up to help me.

Midnight shifts are very weird.

Did he really or was he just drugged out and said random bs?

He did, but he was French and was talking about the fruit (Pomegranate)

Grenades are named after pomegranates because early ones looked like the fruit

Was gonna say hospital but now I'm sure he was disclosing fruits and seeds at an airport. Wild misunderstanding.
