Authorities say a Kansas man accused of planning to detonate a car bomb at the Wichita airport has been arrested.

U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said the man was arrested Friday morning at Mid-Continent regional airport. He said the man planned to drive a car that he believed was full of explosives into a terminal at the airport.

Investigators say the man is an avionics technician who lives in Wichita and works at the airport.
