Default TSA 'Agent' Arrested

This is funny, arrested at a baseball game... 'Federal Agent' Arrested At Reds Game - Cincinnati breaking news, weather radar, traffic from 9News | Channel 9 WCPO.com

'Federal Agent' Arrested At Reds Game

Claiming he was a federal agent couldn't keep a Chicago man from being arrested at a Cincinnati Reds Game on Saturday.
According to court records, when a concession employee working the View Level at Great American Ball Park refused to serve alcohol to 26-year-old Rafael Rosario, the Cubs fan asked two more times.
When Cincinnati Police asked to see Rosario’s I.D., he tensed up and claimed he was a federal agent and the officer had no right to see his I.D.
Records show Rosario is employed by the Transportation Safety Administration at O’Hare Airport in Chicago.
Police say he gave them an Illinois state drivers license, not a federal I.D. Police note Rosario, who was wearing a red Cubs shirt and blue Cubs hat, refused to cooperate with officers and had blood shot eyes and smelled of alcohol.
Rosario is charged with disorderly conduct while intoxicated, and is scheduled to be arraigned Monday afternoon.

Power trip much? They all need to be arrested on general principle anyway.

Don't be so hard on the TSA guy. He was just trying to test the vendor's security - they're not allowed to serve booze to kids, drunks, or Islamic terrorists.

In the next two days we'll see that TSA has fined the Reds for some security infraction.

Yeah - somehow out of all of this the TSA will end up fining the vendor.

Sadly I don't doubt that. I was held up yesterday while going to work IN UNIFORM because I didn't have a boarding pass. Wouldn't let me through.

Wish I could of done that, but since it was DFW I just walked down to the next checkpoint and went right through. Felt like walking back to the other checkpoint and boasting how the other guys let me through. Didn't think it would be a good idea though.

Pay your fee, attend a week of training, and you too could be a "Federal" agent.
