CBP swears in ten-year-old officer


US Customs and Border Protection officers working at the George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston welcomed the newest and youngest officer into their ranks, when ten-year-old Devarjaye Daniel recited the employee's oath of office.

 

“This is right up his alley,” said Theodis Daniel, Devarjaye’s father. “He turned down a trip to Disney World because law enforcement is all he wants to do.”

 

After the oath, Devarjaye's new colleagues introduced him to intellectual property rights violations, where he asked about a fake purse and contact lenses. He then moved on to watch a CBP K9 team inspect a training aid and then sent the package through a non-intrusive inspection where he found a weapon “packed” in a shipment.
