ORLANDO, Fla. – A trio of men were laughing and smiling as they told an employee they had a bomb in their car at an Orlando International Airport parking garage, according to the Orlando Police Department.
A Budget Car Rental employee was in the B garage Wednesday evening scanning stickers for car when the driver of a Hyundai Kona told her not to scan the sticker because the car was from Advantage Rental, but the employee was confused because he gave the wrong floor number for that rental facility, the incident report said.
