Waukesha’s police chief is looking at a fine for bringing his gun to Milwaukee’s airport.
The sheriff in Milwaukee says TSA stopped Chief Dan Thompson Tuesday morning when they found his loaded pistol in his bag.
Thompson says he forgot the pistol was there.
He was fined just under $770, and allowed to board his flight.
The chief says he was on his way to a conference to talk about Waukesha’s response to the Christmas Parade attack and did not double-check his bag before heading to the airport.
