A security breach at Detroit’s Metro Wayne County Airport resulted in the arrest of a man just before 8 a.m. Eastern today.  It also prompted re-screenings of hundreds of passengers.

UPDATE 2/08/10 at 9:42 p.m. Central: The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the man who allegedly breached security at the Motor City’s international airport this morning was an “Arabic man” and that reports of the man having “wires and other suspicious material hidden under his clothes” were not accurate.
