TSA screener faces theft charge
The Associated Press


MILWAUKEE - A screener with the Transportation Security Administration has
been arrested after a passenger reported that she took money from the
passenger's wallet.

The screener, a 26-year-old woman, was taken to jail yesterday awaiting a
charge of theft. She's being held on 200 dollars bail, according to the
Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department. Her name was not released.

The passenger, from Wisconsin, was waiting to go through screening at
General Mitchell International Airport when the incident occurred and
reported losing 20 dollars.

But officials eventually recovered 235 dollars after the screener's
co-worker told authorities he saw her storing items behind a magazine rack.
