So, A Mexican government official steals property belonging to American officials and then claims diplomatic immunity.
Whether he was up to no good or simply desperate to play BrickBreaker, a Mexican press attaché was caught on camera by Secret Service pocketing several White House Blackberries during a recent meeting in New Orleans, FOX News has learned.
Sources with knowledge of the incident said the official, Rafael Quintero Curiel, served as the lead press advance person for the Mexican Delegation and was responsible for handling logistics and guiding the Mexican media around at the conference. He took six or seven of the hand held devices from a table outside a special room in the hotel where the Mexican delegation was meeting wit President Bush earlier this week.
Everyone entering the room was required to leave his or her cell phone, Blackberry and other such devices on the table, a common practice when high-level meetings are held. American officials discovered their missing belongings when they were leaving the session.
It didn’t take long before Secret Service officials reviewed videotape taken by a surveillance camera and found footage showing Quintero Curiel absconding with the Blackberries.
Nice.
