“It’s just really sad like there’s people doing this out here,” says Emily Zhang.
Zhang is talking about the man seen in a security video, dressed as an Amazon delivery driver, stealing packages from her doorstep on Wednesday around noon in Bellevue.
Zhang says she had no idea what happened until her father got home and started looking for his packages.
“We didn’t find them anywhere, so we ended up rolling back our security cam footage and then we just saw that happen, we’re like ‘wow,’” said Zhang.
The video shows a legitimate Amazon driver leaving two packages at the doorstep.
About ten minutes later, a dark sedan without license plates pulls up and a man quickly gets out.
Wearing an Amazon vest, the man calmly walks up and steals the packages that were just delivered – doing it all while the Amazon van is still nearby on the street.
“My dad was pretty upset because it was truck parts and it was pretty expensive, almost $300 worth of stuff,” said Zhang.
This isn’t the first time KIRO 7 has reported on porch pirates in Amazon gear.
