South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem’s purse was stolen during an outing at a Washington, D.C. restaurant on Sunday. The purse, containing $3,000 in cash and Noem’s passport, was taken by an unidentified thief while the governor was dining at the establishment.
Noem and her companions were reportedly unaware of the theft until they noticed the bag missing. Local law enforcement responded to the incident, reviewing security footage from the restaurant to identify the thief.
A representative from Noem’s office confirmed the loss but did not immediately provide further details on the investigation.
The purse theft marks the latest in a series of high-profile thefts targeting public figures in Washington, D.C., with authorities urging increased vigilance in public spaces. Noem has since reported the stolen passport to the U.S. State Department for replacement.
