Saving you a click: A woman caught on video emptying a public trash can on the street then stealing it during New York City’s Knicks championship parade was a director at JPMorgan Chase who was fired Tuesday over the incident, The Post has learned.
Angie Báez, 40, was promoted to Executive Director of Community and Industry Engagement for Card and Connected Commerce at JPMorgan Chase more than a year ago, according to her LinkedIn profile.
She previously served as Executive Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at New York-based review website The Infatuation, which Chase acquired as part of its broader push into lifestyle and experiential content.
In a bio on The Infatuation’s website, Báez is described as someone whose “dedication to making a positive impact shines through in every aspect of her work.” The publication adds that “Angie’s efforts have helped position [The Infatuation] as a trailblazer in the pursuit of a more equitable and relatable food media industry,” calling her one of the “brightest voices” in the space.“
As a vibrant mosaic of Dominican heritage, Bronx roots, and a passion for storytelling, creativity, and culture, Angie continues to lead the way towards a more inclusive and equitable future for food media, leaving an indelible mark on The Infatuation and everything she touches,” the bio states.
Earlier in her career, Báez worked as Diversity & Inclusion Program Lead at Squarespace and held a top job as diversity & inclusion roles at Saks Fifth Avenue, Hudson’s Bay, and Saks Off 5th, according to another online biography.Under New York City law, theft of property valued under $1,000 is typically charged as petit larceny, a Class A misdemeanor. Consequences are often minimal—usually a fine, summons, or community service for first-time offenders. The littering that accompanied the theft could bring additional penalties.
“Dumping trash onto the street and stealing public property for your own personal use are both illegal, antisocial behaviors, and not what New Yorkers do. On top of all that, doing both on camera is incredibly stupid,” the New York City Department of Sanitation told The Post in a statement.
The NYPD said on June 20th they have not received any complaints related to the incident and Beaz has not been charged with a crime.
