WESTCHESTER, Fla. – Surveillance video shows a brazen serial thief who has been stealing from mailboxes at houses in Miami-Dade County’s Westchester neighborhood.
Sometimes the man drives up on the grass to reach out of the driver’s side window and into the mailbox to steal. Sometimes he walks up to the mailbox.
Omar Delgado said he and other neighbors have woken up several times to their mailboxes open, so they have installed surveillance cameras.
“You can see him going from house to house,” Delgado said.
The U.S. Postal Inspection Service, or USPIS, the federal law enforcement arm of the U.S. Postal Service, encourages residents to report mail theft cases, stay alert for suspicious activity such as wire transfers, block robocalls, and regularly review credit reports.
Detectives asked anyone with information about this or other cases to call Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477 to remain anonymous.
