“This isn’t just a local issue; communities across the country are experiencing those types of thefts,” Sheriff Rob Streck said. “With holiday shopping picking up, the risk of package thefts is likely to increase. We’re encouraging anyone ordering high-end products to consider in-store pickup whenever possible as a way to help protect their purchases.”
