TSA Agent Arrested for Smashing Passenger's Expensive Watch She Stole
19:31 GMT 07.09.2015 (Updated: 19:32 GMT 07.09.2015) A TSA agent at JFK Airport has been arrested for stealing a $7,500 watch and then smashing it to pieces as authorities viewed surveillance footage, according to police.
Margo Lauree-Grant, 41, was arrested Wednesday after allegedly stealing a Canadian man’s Diamond Master during a screening on Aug. 26.
29 August 2015, 08:25 GMT
As TSA officials and Port Authority cops were viewing security video, which allegedly shows Lauree-Grant taking the watch, she left the area to break it.
The watch was recovered in pieces.
Lauree-Grant, of Montauk Avenue in Brooklyn, was charged with grand larceny, possession of stolen property and official misconduct.
Her bust marks the second time a TSA agent was arrested this week.
Previously, a TSA agent was arrested at La Guardia airport for sexually assaulting a South Korean college student after allegedly luring her into a bathroom for unauthorized screening.
