Cargo Handlers Arrested In JFK Thefts

Aug 5, 2004 6:49 am US/Eastern

(1010 WINS) NEW YORK Five cargo handlers have been charged with stealing watches, perfume, pens and hundreds of mini liquor bottles from a duty-free retail company at Kennedy Airport, Queens prosecutors said.

The items, valued at $20,000, included mini bottles of scotch, rum and cognac and were intended for sale to first-class passengers on international flights, the office of Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said Wednesday.

The suspects, who all worked for Sky Chef, Inc., took the goods from a storage warehouse for Retail Services Inc. at the airport and intended to resell them to neighborhood delis and other stores, prosecutors said.

Sky Chef, a subcontractor for air contractors that serve the airport, assembles duty-free products sold by Retail Services and loads the merchandise onto airplanes.
