IOWA PARK (KFDX/KJTL) — Police in Iowa Park are warning residents to be on alert after a porch pirate investigation led to arrests and the recovery of stolen packages.
Officers say the thefts may stretch across multiple communities during one of the busiest delivery weeks of the year.
A man and woman, identified as Harley Holder and Virginia Burden, were taken into custody early Wednesday morning, December 17. Their charges are still pending.
Officers say they responded to the area after receiving a Ring Doorbell notification about a woman taking packages from someone’s porch and pulled over the suspected vehicle. After questioning the couple, they noticed the woman matched the suspect seen in the ring footage.
Upon searching the vehicle, at least 57 pieces of stolen mail were found spanning across Wichita County.
This case is still under investigation, but police urge residents to take extra precautions, including tracking packages, retrieving packages as soon as possible, and installing security measures, such as lighting, package cases, and cameras.
