A man has been arrested after trying to steal two pallets of iPad Minis from JFK airport.

The iPad Minis, twith a total value of nearly $2 million, were being delivered to New York and caught the attention of an airport employee.

Renel Rene Richardson seized the opportunity and asked fellow employees about the shipment, and where to get a forklift.

Richardson was able to get 3,500 iPad Minis into a truck before being caught in the act; the port authorities were able to track him down after interviewing JFK staff about his suspicious inquiries.
