Wichita Police say they have arrested a 41-year-old woman accused of stealing a package off of a front porch near Hillside and Mt. Vernon.

It began around 2 p.m. Monday when the homeowner noticed the woman stealing the package.  The theft was captured on her Ring doorbell.

The homeowner uploaded the video to Ring.com Neighbors Portal where it could be viewed by Police.  On Tuesday, officers were in the area following up on the theft when they spotted the suspect wearing the same clothes and riding the same bike that could be seen in the video.

She was arrested and booked into jail on charges of theft, unlawful possession of methamphetamine and outstanding warrants.  KFDI News is not identifying the woman until she is formally charged with a crime.

Wichita Police recommend that if you are expecting packages to be delivered to your home that you take some precautions:

• Have packages delivered to your home only during hours that you are there;
• If you are not home or out of town, have packages delivered to a trusted neighbor or have that neighbor pick up the package for you;
• Have packages delivered to a store you’ve ordered from, or you can have that package delivered to the carrier facility for pick-up;
• Check with your employer and have packages delivered to your place of work during the day;
• Consider purchasing surveillance cameras and motion sensor lights; and
• If you are a victim of a theft, call 911 to file a police report, and if you have surveillance video, you can provide that to WPD or send it directly to Sgt. Nikki Woodrow at nwoodrow@wichita.gov.
