ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport officials closed down all security checkpoints Wednesday afternoon after a "suspicious device" was detected in a screening machine.

The airport still remained open and operating, although airport spokeswoman Felicia Browder acknowledged there was no way for passengers entering the airport to get to their airplanes.

Browder declined to comment further, saying the airport's general manager would hold a news conference at 4 p.m.

Federal Transportation Security Administration workers detected the suspicious item inside a bag just before 2 p.m., Browder said.

I'm going to have to drive down there from LA to check it out. I should be there within the hour, you have my word.

The way the show works, you would probably arrive after the next commercial break.

It was a dildo.

A suspicious one no less, meaning it had a fake moustache and sunglasses or something. Or it's passport said it's name was something like Ahmed Al Dildololom
