A FedEx driver dropped off a package Saturday morning at the southwest Charlotte home but it didn’t stay there long.
Porch pirate uses trash bag as disguise while stealing package from doorstep
Doorbell videos show a red SUV creeping up behind the FedEx truck. A woman got out and walked to the neighbors with a box in her hand as if she was delivering or dropping something off.
“There were packages that day that I happened to go pick up and take in the house just a few minutes before she came into our driveway and scoped it out,” said Tanisha Reed.
Reed said her Ring camera footage caught the woman searching for packages on her front doorstep.
The alleged porch pirate left her house empty-handed and walked next door where she again parked her SUV.
The alleged thief carried a shoebox-sized parcel with her to the second house, which also had a doorbell video.
“In the amount of time it took us to get up, go downstairs, open the door, there’s no package on the porch,” said the resident of the second home, who didn’t want to be identified.
