NEW YORK -- (WGN) -- An airline employee who allegedly tried to smuggle nearly 70 pounds of cocaine onto a plane has been arrested in New York City, a spokesman for the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency said.
DEA agents say Marsha Gay Reynolds surrendered to authorities at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York on Wednesday.
Reynolds was pulled aside on March 18 for a random screening at Los Angeles International Airport when a Transportation Security Administration officer noticed Reynolds becoming nervous. She then pulled out her phone and made a cellphone call in a language the officer didn't understand, FBI Special Agency Trayvon Barnes wrote in an affidavit.
