Law enforcement believe this driver presented an ID of someone else to wrongfully take a package from a UPS driver. Police are hoping the public can help identify them.
“A UPS driver was approached by an unknown man after making a delivery at 3741 Grandview Road in Millbrook,” a Central Alabama CrimeStoppers release said. “Police say the man asked the driver if he could pick up his package from the truck and showed a photo of an ID on his phone with the correct name and address.”
Believing the request was legitimate, the UPS driver gave the package to the man.
“It was later discovered that the man was not authorized to receive the package, which was valued at $1,758.91,” CrimeStoppers said. “The suspect left the scene in a blue Mazda 3.”
If anyone has any information regarding this crime, CrimeStoppers asks them to immediately call the Police or CrimeStoppers using a 24-hour tip line at 334-215-STOP (7867) or 1-833-AL1-STOP (833- 251-7867).
