Around 5 a.m., staff were screening luggage when they found what they believed to be a hand grenade inside one of the bags.

Police investigated and learned the suspicious package was a metal belt buckle in the shape of a hand grenade.

Officers say while it isn’t illegal to carry or wear grenade-shaped belt buckles, it can cause a problem when trying to pass through security at airports or other secure areas.

If you’re ever wondering what’s okay to bring on a flight, police say you can check the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) website.
