Broken spectre,
AA kicked the guy back to the French police who questioned the guy and supposedly searched him and verified his as good to go.
After that he was then carried by AA. It was not the french who identified him. IT was American Airlines. It is the french that said he was to fly.
So one more time. American Airlines extra private security profiled the guy, and sent him to the French to be more thoroughly investigated.
Cheers
Wino
