AmWest passenger says gate agent's frisking was too frisky

A California woman said she was given a sexually inappropriate frisking by an America West Airlines gate agent doing a pat-down security check just before she boarded her flight at Sky Harbor International Airport.


"He ignored my protest with a smirk and proceeded to take his hands inside my cardigan sweater," said Sharon Schmidt of Placerville, Calif., in a written complaint. "He placed his hands on the sides of my waist, felt up to the bottom of my bra and then down to my hips.

I'm so glad that I'm paying $20 per trip extra for this service.

Mineta should . .

• be fired (1)
• be fired (2)
