TSA removes head of security

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration has removed its head of security after being criticized for long lines at airport security checkpoints.

Kelly Hoggan, who had served as TSA assistant administrator for security operations since May 2013, was replaced by his deputy, Darby LaJoye, who will serve on an acting basis.

On May 12, Hoggan came under fire at a U.S. House Oversight Committee hearing for receiving over $90,000 in bonuses and awards during a 13-month period in 2013 and 2014.
