An employee has been arrested in the vandalism of an aircraft in a Philadelphia-area Boeing plant, U.S. Attorney Pat Meehan said Tuesday.

Inspectors found a cut wire in a Chinook helicopter and a washer left inside another, Philadelphia television station KYW-TV reported.

Police said Matthew Montgomery, a Boeing employee for 18 months, was charged with damaging one aircraft. Officials said at least one other suspect was wanted in connection with the damage of another aircraft.
