Man tries to sneak iguana in courthouse

BOULDER, Colo. -- The Boulder County Justice Center allows service animals into the building, but security guards drew the line when someone tried to sneak his pet iguana through. Sheriff's spokeswoman Carrie Haverfield said security caught the reptile as it passed through an X-ray machine Friday. The pet's owner was turned away and waited outside for his friends to come out of the courthouse. The sheriff's department tweeted an X-ray image of the iguana inside a bag.
