Not exactly... One of our rampers saw a "suspicious" individual roaming around the SIDA area, get into the cargo bin of a CRJ-200. The ramper closed the cargo bin latch on him and called the airport police. It was a HUGE fiasco where Police opened the bin at gunpoint shutting down the ramp for over an hour.
Needless to say that TSA agent didnt crawl into anymore luggage bins after that.
