The possibility of a PlayStation bombshell caused turmoil in the US. It didn’t take long for the bomb squad to investigate at the airport.
A terminal was evacuated last Sunday at the US Boston Logan International Airport on suspicion of a bomb. A PlayStation bombshell was supposed. Shortly after the bomb squad arrived on the scene, it was revealed that the suspicious package was actually a PlayStation game console.
Yahoo News also reported that the PlayStation was actually damaged beyond recognition. In addition, the X-Ray system caused anomalies during the scan due to the bad condition of the game console, and the device was reported for fear of a bomb.
Could PlayStation be the bomb?
Considering the plight of the PlayStation console, it is normal for the security staff to be unable to tell whether it belongs to a game console or not. Airport employees should be especially careful in the face of such suspicious packages. The possibility of a bomb being hidden in various electronic devices is inevitably taken into account. It is comforting that this situation, which will remain as an interesting moment in aviation and gaming history, only created confusion and the bomb threat did not reflect the truth.
As a result, no detailed explanation was made about what type of PlayStation console the package that caused the entire terminal to be emptied belonged to. It is not known what made the device this way. After the bomb disposal teams worked for an hour, the terminal was reopened. Passengers present at the scene still complain about the poor organization and the turmoil created. In addition, the fact that only one terminal was evacuated at an airport with bomb suspicion is another situation that causes criticism.
