There have been a couple reports of packages being removed from porches. Report suspicious activity to the Police Department and follow these tips for avoiding theft from “Porch Pirates.”
It is a good idea to have a plan for holiday package deliveries. You can have items shipped to your work, or ask a neighbor who is home during the day to keep an eye out.
In addition, tracking your packages, being available for delivery, requiring a signature, and opting for in-store pickup when available are all preventative measures.
Preventing Holiday Package Theft
Always feel free to call the Rochester Police Department 248-651-9621 OR the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office at 248-858-5000 if you see any suspicious person or vehicle in your area.
Good crime prevention is a partnership, together we can get the presents under the tree where they belong on Christmas morning.
