Porch pirates are apparently swiping booty from outside of Natick homes, and local police are on the case.
They shared an image on the Natick Police Department Facebook page of a suspect who posed as a food delivery person, then snagged a package from an unidentified front porch in town. Could it be a conspira-sea?
Let’s just seem them try this during Natick Porchfest on Sept. 23 when musicians take over the town’s front decks. That would be arrrr-ogant indeed.
Let’s also hope the police don’t maroon us, and follow up an update if they nab any suspects for stealing people’s treasures.
We reached out to the police on Monday with questions about whether they are pursuing a single or multiple pirates and whether they have data on such thefts this summer/this year. Also, what would someone be charged with for this sort of crime. We’ll update this post with any additional information received.
