Eddie Van Halen has pleaded no contest to carrying a loaded handgun into a suburban airport. The 40-year-old guitarist was fined $300 and placed on probation for one year after entering the plea Thursday, said Burbank Deputy City Attorney Robert Walters. Van Halen then headed for the Midwest to resume a concert tour. Burbank Airport security guards found a Beretta on April 7 inside a piece of Van Halen's carry-on luggage after an X-ray machine spotted it.
