 "It's a disappointment, but a fact of life, that sometimes a few people will succumb to the temptations at LAX," said Los Angeles Airport Police Chief Patrick Gannon. "The actions of these few do not represent the nearly 45,000 individuals who work for the nearly 350 employers here at LAX." 
  
 NBC News reported Thursday that employees with Menzies Aviation, which has an airport office on World Way West, were arrested in connection with the thefts. 
  
 "Menzies never tolerates the theft or destruction of property and requires all of its employees to conduct themselves in an ethical manner and in accordance with all laws and regulations," the company released a statement Thursday. 
  
 Workers at LAX in Custody After Raid 
  
 Several workers at Los Angeles International Airport were led away in handcuffs after a raid at the airport in connection with the theft of passenger property. Gadi Schwartz reports from LAX for the NBC4 News at 11 on Wednesday, March 26, 2014. (Published Thursday, March 27, 2014) 
  
 Company officials said they are cooperating with police. 
  
 They also said that every Menzies employee undergoes a thorough company, Los Angeles Airport and U.S. Customs and Border Protection background check prior to employment. 
  
 Menzies said the case was limited to a handful of employees, acting independently. 
  
 Most of the activity at the airport -- where an estimated 55 million pieces of checked luggage are handled each year -- took place at Terminal 4 and the Tom Bradley International terminal. Other locations included Inglewood and Paramount. 
  
 "We want to do everything we can to make sure our passengers have best experience possible and probably one of the things that really contributes to that is when they get to their location, they have all the property they left with," Hyams said. 
  
 Police spent the night documenting items that were believed to be stolen from passengers and will try to return those items to their owners. 
  
 Police at LAX were also being asked to keep an eye on paparazzi as well on Wednesday night. NBC4's Gadi Schwartz reported that Nicole Kidman, Keith Urban, Khloe Kardashian and Justin Timberlake were at the airport at the time of the arrests. ||||| An investigation into a baggage theft operation at Los Angeles International Airport has grown rapidly, and authorities now say as many as 25 baggage handler may ultimately be detained in the case. 
  
 Police said the theft operation -- probably one of the biggest in LAX history -- preyed on travelers and resulted in the theft of “thousands upon thousands of dollars” in electronics, jewelry and other items from luggage as it moved through the airport. 
  
 So far, six baggage handlers have been arrested and eight others detained in the case. Authorities said they expect those numbers to increase in the coming days. 
  
 Police allege that the thieves worked in tandem for at least several months, stealing from bags and other property in a secured area of the airport. Some of the items were then sold on Craigslist, they said. 
  
 The total loss and the identities of the victims are still unknown. 
  
 Armed with search warrants, police searched homes and airport lockers Wednesday as part of a months-long probe into baggage thefts at Terminal 4 and Tom Bradley International Terminal. In all, 25 search warrants were obtained. 
  
 “At any airport there are always thefts of baggage, but we knew this was prevalent at Bradley and Terminal 4,” said Los Angeles International Airports Police Chief Pat Gannon. “We have multiple companies that deal with baggage at the airport for airlines. But one company had more reported thefts in their terminals than the others and so we began investigating their baggage workers.” 
  
 Some of those arrested and detained worked for Menzies Aviation. The company is contracted by airline consortiums to handle luggage at each terminal. The Bradley consortium is known as TBITTech and it used Menzies. 
  
 In a statement, Menzies Aviation said it believed the alleged thefts were “limited to a handful of employees, acting independently.” 
  
 Menzies said its employees go through background checks by the company, LAX and U.S. Customs and Border Protection prior to employment, and undergo extensive training to “perform their jobs safely, efficiently and with integrity.” 
  
 “Menzies supports this enforcement action and pledges its complete cooperation with the police investigation,” the statement said. 
  
 Gannon said that the contractors all must pass a vetting system established by the Transportation Security Administration and that criminal background checks are done on employees and they cannot have had any felonies or serious misdemeanors. That level of screening is set by the TSA. “It applies to any on the airfield,” he said. 
  
 The thefts were not carried out by a complex gang working for someone but rather “crimes of opportunity to enrich individuals,” Gannon said. 
  
 Gannon said the thievery was widespread. 
  
 “Basically everything of value, be it electronics, jewelry and items that could be stolen, in seconds would be removed from bags,” Gannon said. “They’d just open up the suitcases and rifle through them and pocket valuables.” 
  
 Gannon said most of the thefts occurred at the end of a complex system of conveyor belts that deliver luggage. As the suitcases are loaded into carts on a platform, the thieves would search them for items they could quickly sell. 
  
 “I think there was a lot collusion but not an organized ring,” Gannon said. 
  
 [For the record, 4:37 p.m. March 27: An earlier version of this post said that those arrested and detained were employed by Menzies Aviation. In fact, some of those arrested and detained worked for Menzies Aviation.]

A: 
Police have arrested six baggage handlers and detained eight others to crack an alleged theft operation at LA International Airport—likely the biggest in its history, the LA Times reports. Police say travelers lost "thousands upon thousands of dollars" as handlers stole jewelry, electronics, and other items from luggage moving mostly through two airport terminals. "At any airport there are always thefts of baggage, but we knew this was prevalent at Bradley and Terminal 4," said Pat Gannon, an LA airports police chief. After a months-long investigation, police served 25 warrants today at the airport and several homes across South Los Angeles county, seizing items like clothes and jewelery, NBC Los Angeles reports. The thieves allegedly searched bags for items at the end of a complex conveyor-belt system where luggage was loaded onto carts. Police clued in because one baggage-handling company, Menzies Aviation, had more reported thefts than any other. Menzies released a statement saying the suspects were "limited to a handful of employees," and Gannon nearly agreed, saying that "there was a lot collusion but not an organized ring."
