A California family is outraged after a TSA agent aggressively patted down their 10-year-old daughter for nearly two minutes.
Kevin Payne, caught the moment his daughter, Vendela, was checked thoroughly by a TSA agent at an airport in North Carolina before their flight back to San Diego on December 30.
Payne said he and his daughter felt the security check was excessive, uncomfortable and inappropriate.
‘My dad was making funny faces silly faces in the mirror and I felt like screaming the whole time,’ Vendela told NBC San Diego.
The family was stopped after a Capri Sun juice bag was found in Vedela’s bag, which she left there by accident when she went through security at Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
The girl was then flagged for extra screening – a pat-down that took nearly two minutes.
‘It was an uncomfortable situation,’ Payne told NBC of TSA’s actions.
