It doesn’t rank with airports in Atlanta, Houston or Dallas in terms of numbers, but Newark Liberty has had what the TSA and Port Authority say are an alarming amount of guns seized from passengers trying to board planes with them. And most of those things are loaded. It's become an epidemic, said Thomas Carter, the Transportation Security Administration’s director for New Jersey, during a Wednesday news conference at the airport. “Guns and ammunition are never allowed to pass through a security checkpoint to be carried onto a flight, even if a traveler has a concealed carry permit,” Cart…

One Of These Vehicles Is Not Like The Others: Repetitive Toll Evader Nabbed At Holland Tunnel
Mechanical devices that cover the license plates of vehicles gliding past Hudson River bridge and tunnel tolls were once a rarity. Exorbitant tolls have upped the ante, however. This week, an observant Port Authority police officer at the Holland Tunnel caught yet another driver utilizing an electronic sliding panel to cover a rear plate, authorities said. Quintin T. White, 41, of Brooklyn wasn't only one of several motorists who've failed to slip by the PAPD's watchful eye in recent weeks, Port Authority Spokeswoman Lenis Valens said. He has also cheated the Port Authority and the MTA ou…

VIDEO: You might've thought he was a James Bond or "Kingsman" fan after a New Jersey driver was nabbed by Port Authority police for using an electronic gizmo to evade tolls.
