SAVANNAH, GA (October 27, 2021) – The Savannah Police Department is warning the public of an increase in package thefts that have been occurring in the city and is also requesting assistance identifying the suspects.
As the holiday season approaches, the department is beginning to see an increase in the number of package thefts reported. Package thefts tend to rise throughout the country in the holiday months as people begin to increase their online shopping.
Multiple suspects have been captured on surveillance footage removing packages from porches throughout the city.
Anyone with information on any of the subjects pictured should contact detectives at (912) 651-6994 or CrimeStoppers at (912) 234-2020. Tipsters remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward. CrimeStoppers tips can also be submitted online by visiting SavannahChathamCrimeStoppers.org and clicking “Submit Online Tip.”
PACKAGE THEFT TIPS
- Never have packages delivered to your home when you are away. Either have them re-routed to an alternate address, pick them up at the carrier office or ask a neighbor to pick them up for you. Those big boxes are a clear sign that no one is home and your purchases have been left unattended. Some thieves will follow delivery trucks to see where they make stops at.
- Use tracking services with your shipping provider to see where your package is and when it has been delivered.
- If you see a suspicious person in your neighborhood walking up to doors or following a delivery truck, call police.
- Install porch cameras that will alert you to the presence of someone on your property or capture an image of the suspect.
