In the videos, Douglas walks up to the porch holding a box, and then swaps it with the one sitting on the porch. Police say the box she leaves is empty.



Jake Wolpert says he had about $150 worth of gifts stolen from his front porch.

"Once I found out someone else's packages had been stolen, I checked and I saw mine were supposed to have been delivered and they weren't here," said Wolpert.

"She would come shortly after the delivery truck would make a drop off and run up and grab the package off the lawn," said Police Chief Michael Clark.



Douglas is charged with theft and receiving stolen property.
