Possible explosion heard near runway used by Bush's plane

CHARLESTON, W.Va.
- Authorities said a possible explosion was heard Wednesday near a runway used earlier in the day by President Bush's Air Force One.

One man was questioned but was not taken into custody, the Secret Service said.

Security officials heard what they thought was an explosion near the north end of Charleston Yeager Airport's main runway, State Police Maj. Charlie Bedwell said. The sound was reported at about 10:45 a.m.

At the time, Bush was meeting with West Virginia National Guard officials at guard offices near the airport, said airport Manager Rick Atkinson.

The president had arrived at the mountaintop airport overlooking downtown Charleston earlier in the morning, using a Boeing 757 instead of the larger 747 normally used, and took off again early in the afternoon without incident.

Tony Ball, a spokesman for the Secret Service in Washington, did not know what the noise was or who had reported it.

"All that we have now is a report of a loud noise and no verification that anything happened," Ball said.

"The person who was being questioned had no involvement. He was never in custody. He was just being questioned," Ball said. He would not elaborate.

He earlier had said that one person was in custody.

Bush visited Charleston as part of a series of trips to speak on military themes.
