A TSA agent was caught stuffing a passenger's iPad into his pants by a Continental Airline employee, according to the Broward Palm Beach New Times.
Nelson Santiago -- a TSA officer since 2009 -- was caught earlier this week by a Continental Airlines employee taking an iPad out of someone's luggage and stuffing it into his pants, the cops say.
After being arrested Monday on two counts of grand theft, police say Santiago admitted to stealing computers, GPS devices, video cameras, and other electronic merchandise from luggage he was supposed to be screening.
It's thought that Santiago stole around $50,000 worth of electronics in the past six months. He would post photos of the stolen goods online almost immediately and often sell the electronics before his shift was over.
This is a good reminder to enable the free "Find My iPhone" service on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if you have not already.
