Yeager Airport Director Rick Atkinson said the substance released when a Delta Air Lines staff member opened a piece of luggage was the result of two personal hygiene products mixing together.
Initial reports identified the substance released as CS gas, a common type of tear gas.
Sayre said airport staff also found prescription medication in the bag that was not prescribed to the owner. The drugs have been turned over to authorities.
Sayre (airport guy) said the bag belonged to a man from the Logan area, whom he did not identify.
