What made her have you come pick up the bag instead of her picking up her own bag? >> She long frame. She called me. Call me first. >> You would have believed that that store was one of those stores you could just walk in and walk out. >> Yeah. >> Why would you take the tags off? You don't have to answer that question. >> These are the moments when dumb passengers steal on airplanes and instantly regret it. In this case, airport officers responded after a man allegedly grabbed a flight attendant's luggage from baggage claim and walked out as if it belonged to him. What followed wasn't a clever escape. It was a story that unraveled one contradiction at a time. >> Come on. >> Come on. Grab yourself. Step off. >> Grab yourself. Let's go ahead and step off real quick. Go ahead and step off. Grab. Grab. I know. I got it. I'm We're going to bring it off. >> No. Go ahead and grab your car. Go ahead and get off. I'll get the car. >> Just neighbor. Have a seat over here. Okay. >> So, where are we coming from? I just come from downtown. >> Downtown? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, were you at the airport just a minute ago? >> Yeah, recently. >> Not recently. >> Okay. So, why would we have a Sonia luggage with you in your possession? >> Cuz I got a call for it. >> You got a call for it? >> Who called you for it? >> My She called you. >> So, right now we have you at the airport going to there and just picking that up and walking away. Yeah, >> she called me. >> Okay. You have any ID on you or anything like that? No, I don't. >> Okay. >> How'd she call you? >> Oh, Parkland. >> She She called you at Parkland? >> Yes, I was at Parkland. >> Okay. And how do you know her? >> Oh, long been friends for a long time. >> Been friends for a long time. >> Very long time. >> So, how old is is Sonia? >> How old is she? >> I'm sorry. >> How old is >> Yeah. How do you guys know each other? I know you said a long time, but how do you know each other? You guys go to school together? You guys? >> Yeah. >> So, she's the same age as you? >> Mhm. >> What age is that? >> It's been so long. >> You don't know your own age? >> Yeah, I know my age. the same age. I'm 36. >> Okay. So, she she would be 36 also. Okay. >> Okay. >> Is that your hospital band? >> Yes. >> Let me see that real quick. Hey, I'm going to take a picture of it. All right. >> I got the spelling wrong. >> What were you in parkland for? >> Oh, medication. >> Medication. Okay. Well, I see all those cards that you have in your hand are also for Sonia as well. So, she tell you to get those, too? >> Yep. >> Okay. Well, whose car keys are those? >> Those are her car keys, too. >> No, it's mine. I was at four. >> Those are your car keys? >> Yes, it's mine. You sh your heart. >> Okay. >> So, here's the deal. So, we're So, right now you're detained. Okay. >> Okay. >> You're detained for an ongoing investigation for theft in progress. Okay. We're going to contact Miss Sonia to see if she actually told you to come get it for >> Okay. >> Okay. Right now, it would probably be the best thing to probably tell us the truth. >> The lie isn't collapsing because it's challenged. It's collapsing because it keeps needing new versions. >> About what? I picked up a luggage. >> Okay. Were you directed to? >> Yes. I got called. >> You were called? >> Yeah. >> By Sonia herself and said, "Hey, go pick up my lovely from the airport." >> I got called. >> How How do you know Sonia? >> He just told us all your friend. >> Long time friend. Where'd y'all meet? >> Way back in high school. >> High school. >> We're the same age. >> I just gave him the PNR, so I'm He's going to go talk to prospecting. Just get a contact number. >> Okay. >> Do you have anything that's on you that's any weapons or anything like that? Needles, knives, or anything like that? >> No. No. Where'd you get that watch from? >> I've been been having it. >> You've been having it? >> Yes. For a long quite a long time. >> So, is that a credit card? Sonia's credit card? >> No, it's not a credit card. >> Debit card? >> Yes, it's a debit. >> It's a debit card. >> Yes. >> We need to see those keys real quick. >> They're old. It's a old car. >> So, what kind of car is it? >> Lincoln. >> Lincoln. Okay. So, do you have a phone on you? >> No, I don't. Do you have a tile? A >> tile? >> Do you know what that is? >> Tile. >> A tile. Do you know what a tile is? >> A tile or what? >> Like a tile. T I L E. >> A rag. What you mean a rag? >> No, not a towel. A tile. T I L E. >> Do you know what that is? >> Tile. No. What you going? >> No. You don't know what it is. >> I don't know what you're talking about. >> So if these are your car keys, you should know what's on your car keys, right? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> That's the old car. I understand it's an old car, but when I ask you, do you have a tile? You don't know what that is. There happens to be a tile on this keychain. You would think you would know what a tile is if you have it on your keychain. >> It's been so long. I've been in parking all day. >> Okay, you see how the story is not adding up, right? >> I just don't >> I mean, I can ask anybody out here. They probably know exactly what's on their car keys. >> When the details stop matching reality, confidence becomes the biggest piece of evidence against you. Okay. >> Sure. But I mean >> I mean we can figure out we can call her right now and see if she has a Lincoln. If she has a tile on if she can track it and if it all comes back to her, you have her keys in her possession. >> I've been at work and I was going and I was going to export. So what made you come out here to the airport besides coming to pick up her stuff? >> Oh, I've been having a long day. A long day. >> So what time she call you? >> Oh, this way earlier and I'm late. I was late picking it up. >> And what made what made her have you come pick up the bag instead of her picking up her own bag? >> It's a long frame. She called me for emergency for emergency room. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Hey, um we're here. We're here at the baggage claim. The bag was actually sitting next to the ticket counter by them. It was a bag that came in earlier. The passenger is not even here. They don't have any of the information. >> It looks like it came in at 2:30, but I got the P&R and actually we just looked at the bag tag and it's got a file number. So, a con just following me there right now. >> All the information is on the bag, so I guess contact the victim, see what they want done. >> Sweet. Thank you. >> Cool. Thank you. >> I guess that would have been easy just to look at that. Figure it out as we go. >> Yeah. >> Is this Is this Missaga? This is uh Officer Chris Collins from DFW airport police. How are you? So, we have a we have an incident. Um do you know a Hold on one second. Let me get his name first of all. Do you know a Shanto? Okay. Did you request anybody to pick up your bags from the airport today? Okay. We currently have a bag in that has your number, your uh bag tag on it in our possession. Uh one of a an individual got off of a dart train, walked up to the terminal A, grabbed your bag, got back on the dart train where we have him here in our custody right now. He's detained. Um, so I'm making contact with you to make sure um whether or not you gave him permission to retrieve your bag cuz he's stating that you called him to come pick up his bag for him for you. Okay. Um, do you happen to own a vehicle? What kind of vehicle do you own? A Lincoln MKS. >> That's really good. >> Okay. Do you have a tile on your keychain? >> Okay. It doesn't work. What about like a white watch? If I was to send you pictures of things with gold on it. >> Yep. >> Okay. Do I have permission to run uh go through your bag to make sure everything's all here? We're going to search the individual's person um to make sure what else he has on him. He does have your white watch with gold um ring. He's actually currently wearing it. He said he's had that for a long time. Um he said that the car keys was his. Uh it's an old Lincoln. Um, but whenever I asked him about the tile, he couldn't he didn't even know what a tile was. So, >> this is the point of no return. The story finally meets the person it was supposed to be about. >> U, which confirmed the fact that he didn't even know those were his car keys. Um, but we're going to search him to make sure there's nothing else on him that may be yours. I know he was holding a couple credit cards in his hands when I first made uh contact with him. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to take a picture of everything that was on his person and I'm going to send them to you. Let me give you a call back and then um I'll let you know everything else. Okay. take some of that stuff real quick. So, this stuff is for sure all his. He had the American Airlines jacket on him. >> Yeah. Before you bring in any other property, I just let him know he has a or two lighters. >> I'll let him know though. >> So, those are definitely his slides. >> Yeah. >> We throw his pizza away. >> Yeah. Opportunists rarely stop at one item. Once the bag was open, self-control apparently stayed zipped shut. >> But he's got Sonia's name on it. >> Oh, I think he Oh, >> unless he wrote it on there or something. I don't know. >> Hey, all those cards that he had. >> Yeah. >> No, I want to see if they're hers cuz he had her debit card. >> Yeah. >> on here. So, I don't Yeah. So, I don't know where he got these from. Now, I can't prove the cash. Hi, Miss. It's Officer Cons again. So, I just went and did uh just a search of your uh your bag. Um I'm just going to go over things with you as I put it back in. So, I pulled everything out and I'm going to go over it with you putting it back in. Um you have several articles of like envelopes and paperwork and documents with all of your name on it in here. Couple gift cards in here that has your I think there's also like a membership card or something like that with your name on it. He had those um gift cards on his person, your white guest watch on his person, and also the car keys on his person. Would I need from you a copy of your driver's license? And can you give me like a ballpark estimate of how much all this would cost? The reason I'm asking is cuz there's different levels of offenses for theft. Well, I know the uniforms alone cost about 300 and then the watches I would say I would say we're close to like $1,000 in that bag if you if you Yeah. If you added gift cards and all that. Yeah. >> Okay. So, um that guest watch was about 300. >> Guest watch is about 300. Okay. >> Yeah. The other watch that you had in that flat or that baggie, is that another guest watch I'm assuming? No, it's a 9 West watch. >> Yeah, that that that probably was about only about about 59 or something like that. >> 59ish. >> Just all the earrings together. I would just say about 150 $200. >> Okay. Um that is enough for us right now to basically add the charge that we need to have. >> Okay. Did he go through the bag? So, I don't know 100%. My belief is where did you have a American Airlines sweatshirt at? Would have been like right on top. >> Yeah, my sweater. >> Yes, your sweater. >> Yeah. >> So, I don't know, and I'm not digging too far into this, Miss Sonia. I don't know how you pack your bags. Um, it doesn't it does look like it may have been gone through, but it looks like all he did was take stuff out of the Where was your car keys in the white gold watch at? >> It was on the It was on the It should have been in what? Like a pocket on the front? Something like that. >> Like a top front pocket like the small front pocket in the top. >> Yeah. >> Okay. That's where That's the only pouch that was open. Um, I don't believe a sweatshirt would fit in there, which leads me to believe that he did enter into your main compartment of your suitcase. Greed has a habit of turning a simple theft into a much bigger problem. >> Um, but the only part that was open when I made contact with him was the top small part, which I led to believe is where probably all that small stuff was located. The stuff >> Are you saying? Are you saying a sweater or >> Yeah, the sweater. I'm sorry. the po uh just like the sweater jacket with like the American Airlines wings symbol on them. That's the only thing they had on it. But nothing else he had on him except for like I said your car keys, the actual white watch with the gold uh the guest watch he actually had around his wrist. He was wearing it. Um the baggie of the the miscellaneous jewelry that was at the very bottom. I just saw that it may be of value. So that's why I pulled it out. >> Okay. All right. >> I just wanted to make sure cuz I only saw one of some things. I wanted to make sure that you knew there's only one of some things which you did confirm. >> Okay. All right. >> Um as far as what he's going to do, um you are the victim of the offense. So he will be going to jail if you want to file charges. >> Yes. >> Okay. There you go. So he is going to jail for a uh theft of property 750 to 2500. The accused was charged with theft of property valued between $750 and $2,500 and was banned from the airport. Moving on to the next case where what should have been a routine airport purchase quickly turned into a theft investigation worth over $1,100. The suspect insisted it was all an honest misunderstanding. But every decision she made afterward only made that explanation harder to believe. By the time officers caught up with her, this was no longer about forgetting to pay. It was about whether anyone would believe that was ever the truth. Hi, what's >> I'm going back to my store, but she just walked out of the store. He's going to let her pay for it. But she literally stole that both of those bags from him while he was helping another customer. I was just coming in to work and he told me about it. So, I said, "I'll help you. Look, cuz he's going to lose his job. That's over $1,000 worth of bags." >> Okay. >> Now, she says she's going to pay for it. She thought she >> need >> I can show you on camera right now if you want. >> So that roller is like 700 something bucks and the backpack itself is like 450 something bucks. What? She's trying to say that she thought this was one of like you know how like Amazon has stores where you can like grab stuff and walk out and then charges it to your account. She's saying it was like that, but like the video that she just got, you can tell she walks up, grabs it. She steps over here like looking and she's looking and then she walks in right there for a second and then she just walks out. night. I was like, I was sitting there like >> Oh, okay. I'll wait for him because I know he's getting video that you have. So, >> it was me. That's why I There's places that you walk in and out and that's I said it was a scam as you walk out. I wasn't trying to leave without it. I sat on my gate. I'm not trying to do anything. I'm willing to pay for it. And I apologized to him. He said he could lose his job. And I'm I feel really bad. I really do. >> And I I did not switch tags. I have my my bag over there. I didn't do anything to Miss Sky. I I was just sitting on my gate. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Well, >> I just came for work honestly and I'm going on a on a trip on Friday, so I needed a bag. I saw it. It was busy and I thought it was like a thing that you can I mean most stores in in any other airport I travel a lot you can walk in and out and they scan as you walk out. >> Okay. >> In Minnesota they doing it like all over and it's my bad. I didn't even look. I didn't even look. I need it for the weekend. That's when I'm like was trying to buy it. Okay, give me just a second. Let them talk to her and then and then we'll figure out >> I feel really bad. I really do feel bad. >> Have we got her information yet? >> Yeah, I got her ID. So, not in Minnesota. >> Yes. So, what I was saying is that in Minnesota Yeah. I'm not interested in the story. Where are the tags at to to >> So, I went to the bathroom. I used the bathroom and I need I needed this for the weekend. >> No, where the tags and I went back. >> Can you go get the tags? >> Yes. And they're not there. >> Okay. It's all about contacting. >> Okay. All right. >> I did look. >> The possibility is that if she does purchase it, he he's fine with it. >> So, there is that >> that is an option. But he >> Sorry. >> But if he can't find the proper tags for that, >> then >> can they run the other ones that are like the same? I mean there's like I looked at it'll be up to him. It'll be up to him if he can do I don't I don't know if they can do that or not. >> Okay. Cuz there is all that I mean I looked at the colors. I was trying I looked at the colors and I said I like burgundy and that's >> but I don't know what that does to their inventory. >> So if he brings up a black one it might >> reduce their inventory by one. Okay. >> So you taking that one and and the tags not being with it anymore now it is causing a problem with their inventory. >> So he's going to see what he can do to try to fix that. If not, then he's not going to. >> So, you went back to look at When did you go back to look for the tags? >> Just now. She let me go. >> Oh. >> Just now. And I left my bag here. >> Wow. >> And I said there I I mean I went to the bathroom from here to the bathroom and then to the gate. Actually, I went to the lounge >> and then to the gate. So, they clean out the bathroom. >> Can I tell my gate that I'm late or >> am I going to miss my flight? You think >> just get I mean normally that I mean if it's a 210 >> well that 2 Yeah. I have time. I think I have a phone. >> I mean just depends on Where's your gate at? Which gay? >> Right here. Like 10. >> She's out of state. So you can't give her a citation. >> I mean I I swear I promise. >> Oh yeah. >> He said that's not even an airport price. He says they're normally that expensive which >> Yeah, they are. They are. I mean, I'm buying it because I'm going on a trip with my family and it's my 50th birthday. >> Where's your family? Are they here? >> In No, in Minnesota. I came for work. >> Okay. >> So, I I was buying it to go on a trip to Mexico in Minnesota. another color. >> No, the >> This is where the explanation starts losing its grip on reality. You're >> trying to mess up. >> I mean, I could have just not come back and took my bag any but I'm not trying to do that. >> I just >> No, no. Like when you let me go to the bathroom, I could have just leave. I'm not trying to do anything stupid. I promise. >> Okay. >> I came for work. >> On his end, he has to do something with his inventory that he >> without having the tags. >> Yeah. stuff you can do. >> Yeah. >> So, in that case, uh >> I have that option off the table. >> Can I just buy another? >> I mean, it's the same exact thing. >> By now, every solution arrives too late. Some mistakes can be fixed. The ones that look intentional usually can't. >> So, what's the what is the >> You're under arrest. >> Oh, >> so why can I just pay for it? I swear to God. >> You can't mess up his system. He doesn't have another wine um backpack back there. So, you're there's no other choice. We can't even site because you're not from here and it's it's class A misdemeanor. So, you're going to have to go to jail. >> Can I just buy a black one instead? >> He can't mess up his inventory. Like I said, I mean, >> can I call the company? I mean, can I >> I mean, it's not the same the same code. It's in the same So, do you have anybody on the line with Delta right now? >> Yeah, I'm I have somebody online. Can we look in the bathroom or maybe with the lady that cleaned the bathrooms? >> I mean, >> can I can I go do Can we go do that? >> There's going to be virtually impossible to track down which person cleaned out. >> There is like there is like right here. I promise. I swear. >> You said you already looked. I I looked on the bathroom that I thought it was but there was other bathrooms that were closed really quick. >> I apologize. Like you've already looked. You said that the >> there was one bathroom that I Hello. >> Yeah. So basically, >> so she ripped the tag. The whole problem is cuz they were going to let her pay for it, but she ripped the tags off in the bathroom. They had to track her down in Delta. By the time they got her back here, they let her go look at the bathroom for the tags. He only he doesn't have another tag for the maroon one. So he can't scan a black one and sell it because it's going to mess up his inventory. So there's not much he can do. >> And you do want to press charges now, correct? >> No. >> Okay. All right. >> Okay. >> So it's unfortunate, but that's what it is. >> Can I call them? I mean, can I buy the black one? Can we Can I go to the bathroom again one more time? >> No. I'm so sorry. I swear this is like a total misunderstanding. >> Yeah, we we we tried on our end as much as we could. >> I am so sorry. >> We have to wrap this up. We we have uh we we got some place to go. >> I know. So, >> okay. >> You're going to have to if you want to go put your credit card out. >> Can I grab my bag over there? >> I'll grab your bag. >> You're going to ask your So, can you put me on the 6? Can I leave? Like after you check me in, can I >> So you're going to jail and then you have to talk to a magistrate and you probably won't be out until tomorrow or the next day. >> Oh my gosh. I'm going to make you wonderful. Can we please? >> There's nothing we can do. >> Wonderful thing for my mom's birthday. >> Okay, I understand. >> You left without paying for it. Whatever. Whatever. I get it. I would have the discrepancy, but I need you to go. >> I'm giving you a There we go. I don't even That doesn't even matter. >> Take your take your satchel off. I I'll put that on. >> Can I just buy the black one? Can we look in the bedroom one more time, please? >> Okay. >> Please go take your satchel off and go ahead and take your fanny pack off. I've still got your ID. Can >> Can we please look in the bathroom one more time? Maybe the lady is there. Garbage is there. >> Can I dig into the garbage? You >> already said you, but I didn't look into the other garbage. Can I please take >> please? Please. >> You're under arrest right now. >> You can leave this by your >> one bad decision rarely sinks a defense by itself. It's the extra choices afterward that quietly finish the job. >> Are you here with someone? >> No, I'm by myself. I came for work. >> Okay. >> I just came to drop off a dog for a sick woman. That's what I do. That's literally what I do. Can you can you go to the bathroom with me, please? >> We definitely can't walk inside a woman's bathroom. >> What? Say that again. >> We can't walk inside of a women's bathroom. >> No, I will go in. >> Wait, we >> No, >> we can't. We can't do that. >> I did not mean to do that. I swear to God. >> This is horrible. >> We unfortunately, if we had the tags, we might be able to go a different route. >> I wish I wouldn't take them out. I didn't want to walk around with >> I wish you didn't take the I wish you didn't take the suitcase from the beginning. >> I know. I No, I should have asked. I was busy. I >> No, you should have bought it. Instead of asking, you should have just bought it. >> I I swear that there are so many stores in Minnesota, you walk out and they charge you. >> I've been to those, but you also have to use your card to go inside the store. >> Some of them, not all of them. No, I promise. I promise. >> All right, we're going to walk out to my car. >> That's exactly what I'm going to do. Uh my check I got checkpoint two west at >> so whoever it's taken care of just to check one what kind >> I'm sorry it's too we're too far past >> it's too far okay I have the money for complex I promise >> yes ma'am I wish you would have paid for him to begin with but >> I thought I did >> and it's just unfortunate situation that >> I thought I did I thought I Thank you. >> Yeah. >> I mean, I'm always at the airports. I know exactly how this works. >> I swear to God. >> It doesn't matter. Yes. Yes. Too far like this. >> I could have hide. I mean, I could have done so many things if I was really dry. >> You You have to understand that, right? Like, I could just do something like right. >> What you did was commit theft. So, >> I swear to God, I thought it was like a chicken. >> I hear what you're saying, but it would have been good to verify with somebody that that was the case. >> I should have. >> And by not doing that, this is the situation that you're in. >> No, I understand. I I'm not I understand. >> And when she let me go to the bathroom, I could have just not come back. >> We're going to have to go up and around cuz I'm not going to try to get her around. >> Yeah. >> So, >> you understand? She let me go. >> Well, walk we're going to walk this way. >> I could have just I come back cuz you weren't even there. I came back cuz I didn't do anything. >> I'm not saying I'm not saying you're guilty of anything. >> I would have come back. >> What I am saying is if sometimes if people if you would have believed that that store was one of those stores you could just walk in and walk out. >> Yeah. >> Why would you take the tags off? You don't have to answer that question. What I'm saying is those are questions that the people inside the store asked me. >> Yeah. I didn't want to walk I'm not asking them. >> No. Like would you walk around with a bag with the text on it? I don't >> I'm I'm not asking you that. I'm just telling you what they what they said. >> No, I understand. No, it's not even I'm not questioning their I'm not questioning their thought process. >> I don't I I can see why they think I did it. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> No, I can see I'm not even trying to blame them. I mean, they're doing their job. I feel terrible. >> I feel terrible that he could have lost his job. >> Actually, he wanted to help you out. If he had the tags, he would have helped you. >> I swear that I I feel so bad that he would have lost his job over this. >> He would have >> I give people shots. I don't >> I don't know why this is happening, but you know what? >> I I have an idea why it's happening. I have an idea why it's happening. >> Why? >> Because you walked out the store without paying for the bag. >> No, I understand that. I did not meant to do that. >> Okay. >> But I don't know if God is I don't know why God is doing he's doing it right now, but it's I'm just going to take it. It is what it is. >> It's not It's not the crime of the century. I swear to God, I did not try to walk out with a bag. >> Why? >> I did not. >> Like I said, I have the money. I can show you my my bank account. It's not like I don't have the money. I do have >> It's just unfortunate you couldn't have paid for it when you had the chance. >> I I swear to God, I thought I did. >> I swear to God, I thought I did. >> Do you want to have a seat in there? >> The accused was charged with theft of property valued at approximately $1,130. and officers also cited the removal of the price tags as conduct supporting a potential price tag removal with intent to facilitate theft offense under Texas law. Moving on to the next case where what started as a quick shoplifting attempt quickly spiraled into something much bigger. Instead of walking away after one bad decision, this man kept pushing his luck around the airport, making it only a matter of time before everything caught up with him. >> They have a camera. Uh I have a camera. They said he has a super long white jacket though with the middle on. So you see you can't miss him super long. >> You guys have many cameras. >> We have cameras. Can we see the footage? >> Uh yeah. >> So we take a picture. Sit into our camera people so we can probably get a quick What do you What do you steal? >> Well, we stole a wallet. >> Yeah. >> Which one? [music] Which look like >> like one of these right here >> or looks almost like one of these. It's just blue. >> Can we see the camera? But it's right here. He grabbed it. >> How long ago was it? >> 33. Like now >> how many? >> 15 minutes ago. >> Y'all want to prosecute? >> Yeah, >> we find him. Okay. Cool beans. Hopefully we'll find him. Thank you. He uh what the he probably he probably uh you can check the public side, but he probably went on the sky link or down here. One of the gates, but it's it's up to you. You can go do that if you like. Oh, look. They just sent a picture. He was He was at Gate 24. He was at >> home with the family. >> Right there. He was right there. They took a picture of him. >> Good morning. Good morning. >> Did you see this gentleman come in here? >> That's not too >> Yeah. Two guys. >> Two, right? >> Yes. >> I can look. The police looking for >> They're criminals. >> Where'd he go? >> They tried down here to the They're trying to go to the club with that white coat. >> Yeah. Yeah. Where you going? >> Yes. You just went downstairs. >> Yeah. The people with the sunglasses. >> Yes. >> One stolen wallet was bad enough.
