Police in South Florida have arrested a local rabbi, saying a string of insurance claims he made regarding lost luggage were not kosher.
Miami-Dade Police arrested Barry William Kallenberg at Miami International Airport on Tuesday, charging him on 73 counts each of grand theft, false insurance claims and false supporting insurance documents.
Authorities say Mr. Kallenberg committed 73 fraudulent transactions where he falsely reported his luggage stolen in order to collect on traveler’s insurance policies he held with companies such as American Express and Allianz Global Assistance. According to the affidavit, Mr. Kallenberg was caught on surveillance video picking up his luggage at the airport before returning to claim that the luggage had not arrived.
According to published reports, Mr. Kallenberg remains in jail after a court set his bond at $110,000.
