MIAMI – Detectives are searching for a burglar who was pretending to be an Amazon delivery man when he stole from a nurse who was caring for a 90-year-old woman with dementia.
Surveillance video shows the burglar riding a motorized scooter Wednesday when he arrived wearing a helmet at a house in Miami’s Shenandoah neighborhood.
