"It is likely that these actors are trolling neighborhoods looking for packages to take," Detective Gerald Scott said.

On Wednesday, police announced two suspects confessed to the crime, according to NBC10. Police say the suspects are cooperating, but police have not released their names.

Protect Your Packages

In order to prevent a theft like this, Lietenant Ted Krimmel suggests tracking your packages on line.  If you order expensive items online, they should be signed for and not left on the porch.

In addition, if you know when your packages are being delivered ask a neighbor to watch out for them. You can also put some outdoor furniture on the porch where the delivery men can hide the package. 

NBC 10 reported that the package contained $500 Prada sneakers from Neiman Marcus that the homeowner ordered for her husband. Neiman Marcus has agreed to refund the purchase, but the homeowner still wants this woman brought to justice.
