It may pay to not check your luggage.

A Transportation Security Administration screener in Charlotte, N.C. was arrested after he was allegedly caught stealing money from a traveler’s suitcase, WSOC-TV reported Sunday.
Police in Charlotte said the TSA screener, Reggie Edwards, stole $36 from someone’s suitcase while working at Charlotte Douglas International Airport on Jan. 1.
Edwards was fired from his job and charged with larceny under $50.
In a statement, the TSA said it “does not tolerate theft and moved immediately to terminate this individual.”
But this is not the first incident of malfeasance from TSA employees.
