A former TSA agent at JFK airport is arrested for theft.

The Queens district attorney's office says Margo Louree Grant stole a watch worth more than $7,000 from a passenger last month.

She allegedly took the watch from a plastic bin as the passenger went through security.

Officials say Grant admitted to taking the watch and destroying it soon after as coworkers looked for it. 

She is charged with third-degree grand larceny and official misconduct.

If convicted, Grant could face up to seven years in prison.
