US EditionSecond Suspect Arrested in Theft of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's Purse
- Authorities in Washington, D.C., apprehended a suspect for stealing the Gucci handbag of DHS leader Kristi Noem at the Capital Burger restaurant on Easter Sunday.
- The arrest follows an investigation prompted by a theft ring recently targeting the Penn Quarter area, which involved surveillance footage showing the suspect sliding the bag from near Noem’s feet.
- Noem's bag contained items including about $3,000 in cash, a Louis Vuitton wallet, passport, keys, medication, a DHS badge, blank checks, and a makeup bag, all lost during the incident while she dined with family.
- Secret Service and other federal agencies investigated, with spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi stating DHS will provide information if criminal charges are filed, while experts raised concerns about a possible security lapse.
- The suspect in custody and another sought are believed to be in the country illegally, and multiple arrests related to this theft ring are expected, though it remains unclear if Noem was specifically targeted.
