Washington was robbed by US domestic security minister

In the evening of Sunday, April 20, in the heart of Washington, the District of Columbia, there was a resonant theft: US Internal Security Minister Christie Noem was a victim of a bold crime during a dinner at a restaurant. The incident reported ABC News with reference to sources in the secret service.

According to the investigation, an unknown man in the medical mask was able to steal the bag of the official unnoticed, after which he quickly left the establishment. The crime has been recorded by surveillance cameras and is currently active in search of the suspect.

According to preliminary information, in the bag of Christie Noem were:

  • driver's license;

  • passport;

  • official pass to the building of the Ministry of Internal Safety;

  • personal medicine;

  • keys to the apartment;

  • cosmetics;

  • clean bank checks;

  • about $ 3,000 in cash.

The secret service explained that the minister had a considerable amount of cash because she planned to buy Easter gifts for the family and pay a common dinner with loved ones.

The incident is already investigated by the US Secret Service, responsible for the protection of officials. Local police were also involved in the case. Records from surveillance cameras both in the restaurant and the surrounding streets are studied. The operatives do not disclose the details of the suspect, but confirmed that it is a white -age white man in a medical mask.

Although there was no physical threat to the life or health of the official, the abduction of documents and access to government buildings is a serious risk of safety. Government access to some institutions has already been temporarily blocked and service passes have been canceled.
