Porch Pirates on the Prowl

Updated: Nov 29

Pensacola, FL (Newsradio 92.3) -- It's that time of year again -- holiday shopping is well underway and Amazon trucks are on the move as they deliver packages across the nation.... that also means Porch Pirates are at work and trying to steal unsecured packages ....


"I look at it like this, the UPS and FedEx trucks are Santa on his sleigh.... and right behind him is the Grinch coming along and taking those packages right off the porch," PPD's Mike Wood tells Newsradio the porch thefts usually ramp up starting on Black Friday, but this year they've already seen thefts.


Wood recommends bringing packages in as quickly as possible, but if you're not home he says you should have them delivered to a neighbor that is, or to your workplace if possible.
