Chinese national and former Connecticut resident, Yu Long, was taken into custody in Ithaca, New York just two-days after customs agents discovered proprietary U.S. military documents in his luggage at New Jersey’s Newark Liberty International Airport. He has been charged with trying to take confidential U.S. military documents to China.
Long was a senior engineer for a Connecticut defense contractor, United Technologies Research Center, between 2008 and 2014.
According to Reuters,
Prosecutors said Yu Long was also stopped at John F. Kennedy International Airport in August and found to have $10,000 in undeclared cash, registration documents for a new Chinese corporation and an application to work for a state-controlled aviation research center in China that highlighted Yu Long’s work experience on the engines.
