Drunk Customs Official Allegedly Lost Sensitive Documents

A Japanese customs official is in hot water after allegedly leaving sensitive documents on a train after a night out drinking. The unnamed worker reportedly consumed nine glasses of beer in Yokohama last Thursday, and lost a bag containing information on 187 people, some of whom are suspected drug smugglers. The employee also lost work laptops, according to officials. The finance ministry apologized and said the employee would face consequences. (newser)
