NE OH Airports: No Heightened Security

Employees at both airports met with Transport Security Administration or TSA officials Monday before reaching their decisions. Akron Canton AIrport spokeperson Kristie Van Auken says security officials, while not taking on enhanced procedures, are still remaining vigilant.

Kristie Van Auken: They take their jobs very seriously and we feel confident that they will continue to do their job to protect the flying public moving forward.

A press release from Dayton's Wright-Patterson Air Force Base said security has been stepped up there though, a spokesman wrote, not because any specific threat has been identified.
