With Black Friday and Cyber Monday now over, many people are expecting their packages to arrive, but some are dealing with porch pirates.
Porch pirates are people who steal or destroy a person’s packages off their front porch.
In 2022, Governor Andy Beshear signed a law that makes stealing a package off of someone’s residence a felony in Kentucky.
Louisville Metro Police offered some tips to prevent porch pirates from getting your packages this holiday season:
Track your packages in real-time or schedule a drop-off time
Require a signature to receive packages
Consider sending packages to a locker system like UPS, Amazon, or FedEx systems
Purchase a “lock box” for packages, the box locks once the package is put inside
Utilize video surveillance
