SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) – California’s attorney general says a federal Transportation Security Administration agent tricked a traveler into twice showing him her breasts as she went through security at one of the world’s busiest airports.
Attorney General Xavier Becerra on Thursday said 22-year-old Johnathon Lomeli was working at Los Angeles International Airport in June when he used fraud or deceit to falsely imprison the woman.
An FBI spokeswoman says Lomeli was let go from his airport job months ago.
He was arrested early Thursday. He is accused of looking inside a woman’s bra to make sure she wasn’t hiding anything.
The union representing TSA employees did not comment, and officials could not say if Lomeli has an attorney.
