Security alert at Southampton airport
SOUTHAMPTON airport was put on security alert this morning after staff discovered what appeared to be a chemical container in the toilets.
The Chemical Investigation Unit was called and the container was taken outside the building where a cordon was placed around it.
But the investigation was called off after the container was found to contain cooking oil.
No disruption was caused to passengers or flights.
