The building was evacuated, writes NewsRu.com. People were taken outside the danger zone with a radius of 60 meters. Because of the grenade mock up, there was a crash in the departure schedule. 12 airline flights Southwest and one flight Delta were detained, the airport administration said in a microblog Twitter.

Later in the press service of the air port, AP was explained that all over 15 flights had been delayed.

Police interrogated a teenager carrying a grenade, and then let him go. It is unclear whether his parents will be held accountable and fines imposed on them. One and a half hours after the announcement of the alarm, the airport was resumed.

During the day this is the second incident at the airports of Houston. June 6 team of sappers was called to the terminal D airport named after George W. Bush, where one of the passengers announced that he had explosives in his bag. In this case, the alarm also turned out to be false. Later, the airport administration wrote in Twitterthat the air passenger, who was dissatisfied with something, informed about the explosives.

According to Hobby Airport spokesman Bill Begley, the summer months are the most stressful. During this time, Houston's air ports serve about 15 millions of passengers, writes Houston Chronicle.

In order to avoid a repetition of false alarms, a representative of the airport advised passengers not to take items with them that may cause unnecessary questions from security personnel.
