Pierce Brosnan stopped at TSA checkpoint for knife

Police in Vermont in the USA say former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan was been stopped at a local airport security checkpoint because of a knife he was carrying.

Burlington Police Department Lt. Shawn Burke says airport authorities told him about Brosnan's encounter with Transportation Security Administration agents. He says Brosnan "was encountered by TSA at one of their checkpoints" and was allowed to proceed after the issue was resolved.

He said Tuesday that police wouldn't be called to Burlington International Airport for such an incident and they don't have a report on it. A TSA agent said he hadn't heard about it.
