Package Thieves and Break-Ins

Again we want to remind you that package thieves are more active at this time of the year. With new hires in the package delivery vans, less care seems to be taken to try to hide the package from the street.  One woman wrote that it was one minute from the time the delivery man dropped a package at her neighbors until it was stolen.  Unfortunately, while the person reporting the theft had cameras, they were not pointed to observe the theft, and the neighbor did not have cameras.

This morning I got a notice of an attempted break-in in the Riverside Road area of Puyallup today at 6:45 AM.  The homeowner heard the attempt, and in her own words “grabbed a gun and called the police”.  She said it was no more than 15 minutes after her husband left for work, and speculates that the bad guy was watching her house.  She described the man as white, 6 ft tall with a dark hoodie and pants.

  1. Hi. About two weeks ago I was in my backyard with our little dog (on a leash) when the two dogs came up behind us. I did not hear them so when my dog started barking furiously I turned and saw them and they did scare me at first. I yelled at them and they finally ran off. On two other occasions they came right up on our back deck and peered in the sliding glass door. Again I yelled and they ran off. It seems we may have some new neighbors on the north side of Littleton’s; I wonder if the dogs could belong to them? The larger dog looks like she could have had puppies recently and the smaller one seemed to be three-four months old.
