A woman was arrested Friday after trying to sneak a stun gun through a checkpoint at John F. Kennedy International Airport.

The Transportation Security Administration says Port Authority police arrested the woman after an officer spotted the stun gun/flashlight combination tool, which is about as long as a pen, in her carry-on bag.

The woman was trying to board a flight to Orlando.

She is facing a state charge.

The TSA reminds travelers that some weapons are permitted in checked baggage, but they should call their airlines first before bringing them to the airport.
