Nantucket RI Sept 23 2011 A 21-year old Nantucket man pleaded innocent in Nantucket District Court Monday to two airport security violations and possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute.

Craig Arnold, of 8 Winn St., was arrested last Monday at Nantucket Memorial Airport with a loaded 38-caliber revolver, more than four ounces of marijuana, a bag loaded with ammunition and pot-laced brownies as he attempted to board a flight to Hyannis.

Another passenger waiting to board the plane called police after allegedly smelling marijuana on Arnold, and responding officers found several kinds of marijuana, $668 in cash and the Ruger revolver with a laser-sight on his person. Although Arnold was licensed to carry the firearm, he had not properly notified airport security or the airline that he had it in his possession, police said.

Arnold was released on personal recognizance and ordered to return to court Oct. 17 for a pretrial hearing.
