Larry Brooks, 19, who had been employed at Garda Security for just one day, was arrested and charged with theft after company officials noticed the money was missing.
The alleged theft was captured on surveillance video.
Security officials recovered over $85,900 from a vehicle before they contacted police. It remains unclear what happened to the rest of the stolen money.
