Some bad news today

Leopoldstoch

Some a hole stole my roccbox turning peel and a few other delivered items today. Pretty pissed and bummed...

Thoughts on reaching out to roccbox or file a claim with ups?

really upset and disappointed with people today...

We have overhead cameras and doorbell cameras, but someone needs to make a pop-up camera, for the edge of your front lawn, that can record license plates.  
I can't stand thieves.  

Leopoldstoch

I have cameras but partly due to the -30 degree temps today I’m sure, the guy was covered head to toe and I couldn’t make anything out. Parked where I couldn’t see plates.  I basically saw it all take place from my cameras while at work helpless to it happening.

Really frustrated right now.

Ah Dude! That is terrible! You're best bet is to file with UPS. So sorry this happened

That just ticks me off.  I’d call UPS first.  Also, make sure you file a police report.

It it appears he was simply following the ups truck because he was at my door a few minutes after it was dropped off.

how long before homes are going to be designed with a large mailbox type door for packages to be securely delivered to?   Sort of like the ole mail slot in the front door just much bigger and secure

that's his truck?  You got him if it is.

I'm curious what liability UPS might have if the recipient did not request signature required delivery.

If that's his truck, I don't see how throwing the photo out on Facebook (police will sometimes do this) won't result in someone turning him in or recognizing the vehicle.

Looks like maybe he was working in the neighborhood? Work truck and ladder, I would bolo you might see him working again at a neighbors. Maybe drive around the hood tomorrow

That is him. 6 minutes earlier ups was at the door dropping the packages off, and then I got notified again to see that. Come home tonight to no packages at the door. Don’t know that truck or a person of that build.

Gonna stop by the police station in the am and bring the video in to them and see what happens.

I don’t have Facebook unfortunately in this immediate situation.

alaskanassasin

Have the hoa post it on their fb if they have one 

nolaegghead

Surely you know *someone* on Facebook or that nextdoor site....

Police is the first step though.

Leopoldstoch

The neighbors are on Facebook and with the hoa Facebook so I’m gonna talk to them tomorrow to post it, and file with the police in the morning.

Its only like $100 some bucks give or take, but just really sucks and makes you upset with these shitheads in our society.

Oh well. Could be worse. Egg on. Just had to vent to someone, and say it out loud so to speak as I was pretty damn disappointed and upset.

StillH2OEgger

Let us know if you get something positive to update. I doubt this is his first time and it would be great to see you get some justice.

Oh, I read it as " stole my Roccbox, turning peel...".

Still sucks.  Catch that ahole

Yeah fortunately it wasn’t my actual roccbox. Just the turning peel that I have been anxiously awaiting to be back in stock on their website. Then it became available and ordered it, only to have this happen.

Give that picture to your local PD. If they are worth a sh!t, they will find that truck.

it's not just you though,  this guy is going the same thing to your neighbors and folks all over your town. That is a pretty distinct truck,  they will find him. 
At this point, it isn't necessarily about what you paid for your package,  it is about putting a thief where he belongs.

That is how some expletive deleted stole 2 aluminum ladders of mine a few years ago. Driving a white panel van like plumbers, painters, and electricians drive. He got out walked around behind my house where I had been painting, picked them up, carried them to the van and put them up on the rack. I know because my neighbor watched him do it and said so while I was talking to the police. My neighbor said that he thought that I loaned them to the guy. I grabbed hold of my temper and said "Bob if I loan something to someone you can be sure that I will be here to help them load it." I had made a quick run to Lowe's for another paint brush.

Thats cold...and i aint talking about the weather

I’d be pissed if I was out in -30 lifting packages and all I got was a damn pizza peel.

Begger

Box theft from a door step is an increasingly known crime.

But I want to know something trivial.    What do those Parasites DO for a living?
Do they just cruise around looking for unattended boxes?   Can they resell for even enough to keep gas in the car?   

Speaking of the SuperBowl.....

How about a few EXECUTIONS at HalfTime?    A selection of thieving vermin might help the festivities.  

Gulfcoastguy

No I like the idea of going back to chain gangs, make them work for a living.

GrateEggspectations

The sad thing, beside the theft itself, is that he very likely has no use for them and they’d be tough to resell - meaning they have no value to him. Unless he’s a pizza master. Then it’s his lucky day. 

As @nolaegghead points out, you have a good shot of his vehicle. I’d encourage you to follow up with police and even report the incident to UPS, given that you say he’s following their trucks.

Keep us posted on this.  Hope they catch the SOB
