by Alex Lloyd Gross

Stealing is wrong. Stealing an unknown package is downright stupid. You don’t know what is inside. Is it adult diapers? Is is a part for an item you don’t own and cannot identify? A theft, on the 4500 block of Riverside Way was caught on security camera. You can see it below. It happened on January 28,2024 about 5:17 PM. Police just recently released video.

Watch an unknown black male carry a pair of sneakers down Riverside way. He sees a package that was delivered but it is not his. So he looks around, bends down, scoops it up and walks away.

He is described as a black male medium build appears to be in his late teens or early 20’s wearing a dark hooded jacket and gray pants.
