FBI Probes Gun Magazine Found on Frontier Flight in Denver

Frontier says a preliminary review points to a law enforcement officer as the owner.

Overview

  • Frontier said passengers left the plane and were rescreened after a gun magazine was discovered on Flight 4765 in Denver.
  • A security sweep of the Airbus A321 found no other items linked to a firearm, according to the airline.
  • The delay pushed the crew past duty-time limits, so customers were rebooked on a flight that left the next morning.
  • Frontier said its preliminary findings indicate the magazine belongs to a law enforcement officer, though no one has been identified.
  • The FBI’s Denver Field Office said it is investigating whether a federal crime occurred and described the review as ongoing.
