EAGAN, Minn. (AP) -- The co-chairman of Northwest Airlines was caught with a
bag of marijuana and a pipe in his briefcase as he tried to board one of the
company's commercial flights in Boise, Idaho.
Gary Wilson, 54, removed himself from his duties with the airline after he
was cited Tuesday for misdemeanor possession of marijuana and drug
paraphernalia.
Wilson, who had been on vacation, was allowed to board the flight to Detroit
after security discovered the marijuana during a routine screening of carry-on
bags.
His lawyer, Thomas McCabe, said Wilson was carrying "considerably less than
one ounce" of marijuana.
"Mr. Wilson sincerely regrets any embarrassment this incident may cause his
friends and colleagues," McCabe said.
Wilson faces up to a $1,000 fine and a year in jail.
