A couple in a western suburb of Phoenix, Arizona were detained Tuesday, 3 November by police who found more than a thousand of items of luggage on their property. All the luggage was apparently taken from carrousels at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor international airport. None of the bags had identification tags on them. One of the arresting officers said in a court document: “The amount of luggage being stored inside of the residence was almost surreal”.

Police stopped Keith Wilson King at the airport three weeks ago with a piece of luggage that did not belong to him and became suspicious when they saw him again. They then followed him home  and discovered pieces of luggage throughout his home.

Neighbors say that King and his wife, Stacy-Lynn Legg, had frequent garage sales. CNN, Sydney Morning Herald
