Two TSA agents were busted Wednesday at Kennedy Airport for stealing $39,000 from a passenger's bag, a law enforcement source said.
The rogue agents, Coumar Persad and Davon Webb, have admitted to other thefts of up to $160,000, the source said.
Persad, who turns 36 today, and Webb, 30, were arrested by Port Authority cops.
They were charged with grand larceny, possession of stolen property and official misconduct.
The investigation started on Jan. 30 -- the day of the $39,000 theft, the source said.
The source said the agents worked in tandem. One would watch for money as the bags were screened, then notify the other about the loot. One would swipe the money once the luggage was placed in a baggage room.
