The LAPD has arrested a suspect believed to be behind the two dry ice incidents at Los Angeles International Airport since Sunday night.
According to the Los Angeles Times, 28-year-old South Los Angeles resident Dicarlo Bennett was arrested yesterday in Paramount. The Times also reports that Bennett had worked as a ramp supervisor for airport contractor Servisair.
Suspicion arose Sunday evening when a 20-ounce bottle filled with dry ice exploded inside of an employee bathroom in Terminal 2. A fizzing bottle was discovered Monday night on the tarmac outside of Tom Bradley International Terminal. Furthermore, an employee told authorities that he had cleaned up a similar device in the same area on Sunday night.
Bennett was charged with possession of explosives near an aircraft. He's being held on $1 million bail.
