Steven Noble?s attorney said his client wasn?t trying to blow anything up and did not intend to hurt anyone. Hundreds were evacuated from MacArthur after the devices were discovered by airport personnel.

Noble said he forgot he had the items in his bags. He is charged with carrying a weapon or explosive device on an aircraft and is due back in court Oct. 30.
