## Discrepancy

(CAN) GROUND CREWS REPORTED DIFFICULTY CLOSING THE FWD BAGGAGE DOOR. MAINTENANCE INVESTIGATED AND DISCOVERED THAT THE HANDLE SHAFT ASSY HAD A MISSING BOLT. THE BOLT WAS FOUND IN THE BOTTOM CORNER OF HANDLE SUPPORT ASSY CAUSING JAMMING OF THE LINKAGE DURING OPENING/CLOSING. THE BOLT WAS REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY RETURNED TO SERVICE.
