$1.2M Missing From NY-Bound Swiss Air Jet Image Credit: Fabrice coffrini/AFP/Getty Images FBI agents are investigating the apparent disappearance of $1.2 million in cash from the cargo container of a Swiss Air Lines jet that landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport Monday, the agency said. "When it got here, the money was missing," FBI spokesman Jim Margolin said. Police and investigators say they believe the cargo container had not been tampered with, suggesting that the money was stolen before the flight to New York City. A Port Authority official confirmed that it was "an active investigation." The agency, which runs New York's airports, had no comment. Airline spokeswoman Susanne Mühlemann told ABC News this morning, "Due to ongoing investigations, we cannot give any confirmation or comment." The airline declined to specify on which flight the money was supposed to arrive. The airline runs three flights to JFK daily: two from Zurich and one from Geneva. JFK has a long, colorful history of cargo thefts, the most famous being the Lufthansa heist immortalized in Martin Scorsese's 1990 film "Goodfellas." Three months ago, detectives cracked a long-running operation that saw thousands of packages stolen as they passed through Kennedy Airport's huge U.S. Postal Service mail-processing facilities.
