Package thief caught on camera at Palm Springs business
A thief was caught on camera around 9:45 p.m. Sunday night taking a package from outside of Palm Springs Exotic Car Auctions in downtown Palm Springs last night.
The suspect’s gender is unclear and has long hair.
Palm Springs Exotic Car Auctions is located on N Indian Canyon Drive in between E Amado Road and E Andreas road. According to the business owner, the package was delivered at 2:30 p.m yesterday and he was “surprised it lasted as long as it did.” He has not yet issued a report to Palm Springs PD, but has issued a claim with Amazon, which is sending along a replacement.
“I spoke to USPS and they told me they HAVE to leave the package even at a business and even if the business is closed for the day in order to fulfill their deal with Amazon,” said the business owner. “Amazon was great and are sending me a replacement. I think it’s crazy for the USPS to leave a package right on a very busy sidewalk in front of a business on a busy street when the business is closed…they could have put an ‘attempted delivery’ notice on the window.”
If you recognize this person, be sure to contact the Palm Springs Police Department at (760) 327-1441.
