LOS ANGELES Lu Parker, a local television news anchor in Los
Angeles and a former Miss USA, was arrested Wednesday at Los
Angeles International Airport on suspicion of stealing a pair of
earbud headphones belonging to an off-duty police detective,
authorities said.
Parker, 48, was taken into custody at about 7 a.m. in connection
with a theft at a Transportation Security Administration
screening area in Terminal 6, according to a statement by
Airport Police Officer Rob Pedregon.
She was booked at a police station on suspicion of petty theft
and later released.
The headphones owner is an off-duty Los Angeles police robbery-
homicide detective and she made the arrest as a private citizen,
Pedregon said.
The KTLA-TV anchor, whose full name is Frances Louise Parker,
took the earbuds at the security station and was arrested after
boarding a plane.
We believe this is a misunderstanding, Lu is cooperating fully
with the authorities and we are confident she will be able to
clear this all up, KTLA said in a statement.
Parker was traveling to visit her ill father and was in the
security line when she noticed that the earbuds had been left
behind, according to the statement.
She picked them up intending to return them to the owner whom
she had been speaking with while in line to clear TSA, KTLA
said in a statement.
However, she couldnt find the owner and boarded her flight,
according to the station.
Parker is the 1994 winner of the Miss USA pageant and a one-time
girlfriend of former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
