Miami Bride-To-Be Says Wedding Shoes Stolen From Apartment Building’s Delivery Area Weeks Before Ceremony

A South Florida bride-to-be says her wedding shoes and earrings were stolen right off her apartment building’s delivery area, just weeks before she’s set to walk down the aisle. Edianys Santoyo says the packages disappeared from a residential building near Bird Road and Southwest 37th Avenue in Miami, and surveillance footage appears to show the same woman returning to steal from the property more than once.

According to Santoyo, the woman is also suspected of similar package thefts at other locations. Police have struggled to identify the truck’s license plate, and Santoyo says the woman appears to park strategically so cameras can’t catch the plate number.

Neighbors Say It’s a Recurring Problem

Building manager Anise Guy acknowledged that package theft has been a recurring problem at the property, the outlet’s report notes. Another resident, Noe Masis, said he believes he may have been targeted by the same woman after arriving to find his own package missing. Masis said the delivery area needs better security…
