MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – A 54-year-old man was arrested Monday at Miami International Airport after a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer discovered five videos of suspected child pornography, authorities said.

According to the suspect’s arrest report, the CBP officer contacted a Homeland Security Investigations special agent, who then contacted the Miami-Dade Police Department.

Miami-Dade police confirm that the CBP officer reviewed the videos on Kevin Green’s cellphone, which included a video of a girl between the age of 6 and 8 performing a sexual act on a man, and four videos of boys between the ages of 7 and 12 also engaging in sexual acts.

The arrest report does not detail what led to the CBP officer searching Green’s phone.

According to the report, after an MDPD detective responded to the airport, Green, of New Rochelle, New York, spontaneously said he had just taken about 30 pills and wanted to die.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue personnel then transported him to Jackson Memorial Hospital. Police said he could not immediately be questioned due to his medical condition.

He was later released from the hospital and transported to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.

Green faces five counts of possession of sexual performance by a child. As of Tuesday afternoon, he remained in jail and had yet to go before a judge in bond court.
