According to TMZ's latest report, two agents of the Transportation Security Administration were caught red-handed while stealing money.

The TSA officers were identified as Josue Gonzales and Labarrius Williams. Authorities said that these two criminals were working in tandem as they scoped out bags.

They were on duty at the Miami International Airport in late June, as well as in early July. The police affidavit confirmed that they were both stealing money from carry-ons.

In the viral video, you can see that the two TSA agents were always standing at the airport carousel while constantly looting for cash.

To avoid getting caught by passengers, they were stuffing their hands inside the bags. After that, they will securely grab the stolen cash and put it into their pockets.

The New York Post reported that the Gonzales and Williams were arrested in July. They are now facing criminal charges, specifically getting involved in an organized defraud scheme.

Aside from these two criminals, another TSA officer named Elizabeth Fuster was also charged with grand theft. Unfortunately, the case against the woman, who was accused of stealing $600 from a passenger's wallet, was dismissed.
