A suspect has been arrested in connection to the theft of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's handbag at The Capital Burger in Washington. Matt McCool from the Secret Service indicated the thief was not targeting Ms. Noem due to her position but was a serial offender. The handbag, stolen Easter Sunday, contained personal items including cash, identification, and a department badge. The investigation involved multiple agencies, as Ms. Noem alleged that the suspect is a career criminal and a foreign national in the U.S. illegally, a claim not confirmed by the Secret Service.
"The suspect did not seem to have targeted Ms. Noem because of her position, according to Matt McCool, a special agent at the Secret Service."
"The bag contained the secretary's driver's license, medication, apartment keys, blank checks, department badge, passport and $3,000 in cash, raising serious security concerns."
