Under arrest is 41-year-old Marvin Leggett.

State police said Leggett was carrying a pellet gun, two magazines and a folding knife in his carry-on Saturday.

It was during the investigation that troopers said they discovered Leggett had an active warrant out on him from New Britain police.

He faces two counts each of carrying a dangerous weapon and circumventing airport security.

Leggett is free on $15,000 bond and is due in court March 10.
