Civil case - Federal Tort Claims Act. Transportation Security
Administration screening personnel, known as Transportation Security
Officers, satisfy the Federal Tort Claims Act's definition of an
investigative or law enforcement officer - see 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2680(h);
plaintiff could, therefore, bring claims of battery and negligence for
injuries suffered during a screening at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport.
