City Porch Pirates Caught On Video
by Alex Lloyd Gross
It’s holiday time. You are at work and got a notice that your package you ordered has been delivered. When you arrive home it’s gone. Maybe a thoughtful neighbor took it for you until you get home. Maybe these two males took it. They seem to have taken a few items within the last few days. They drive around, spot a package unattended and grab it .
The entire region is covered in security cameras. Some in plain view, others are hidden. If someone unauthorized to take a package grabs one, chances are good that they will be caught on camera. These two guys were and cops want to know who they are. If you know, make the call
