Woman pretended to be FedEx driver, but she stole the packages, Pennsylvania cops say
A woman has been accused of dressing up as a FedEx delivery driver and stealing packages in Pittsburgh after police say a camera caught footage of her, news outlets report.
Officers responded to a residence in Mount Washington, a neighborhood in Pittsburgh, on Nov. 4 after getting reports of a stolen package, police said in a news release.
Video footage was found of a woman dressed in a FedEx delivery uniform stealing two packages from the outside of a home, police said.
Police have charged the woman with theft by unlawful taking, the release said.
When the woman noticed the residence’s camera, she allegedly returned to her vehicle to grab a camouflage jacket before returning to steal the two packages, police told WTAE. KDKA reported that the footage of the theft was caught on a residence’s doorbell camera.
FedEx told the outlet it doesn’t have any record of the woman working for the delivery company and that employees of FedEx are told to always wear photo ID badges.
