Transportation Security Administration agents at the Burlington International Airport in Vermont stopped former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan because he was carrying a knife, Burlington Police Department Lieutenant Shawn Burke told the Associated Press based on a tip from airport authorities.
The blade was reportedly a ten-inch hunting knife, though once TSA stopped Brosnan and the issue was dealt with, the actor was able to continue his journey.
No word on whether the Irish actor and star of GoldenEye and Die Another Day identified himself to authorities at the checkpoint as “Bond. James Bond.”
