A Lakeland woman expecting a package caught a thief in action instead of getting a worry free delivery.

After the package was delivered and left on her doorstep off of Duff Road in Lakeland, a suspect driving a white van, possibly a work vehicle, drove by the residence.

The van returned from the other direction, and the driver stopped in her driveway and walked to the doorstep where the package was.

The suspect waved a device over the pacakge and them picked it up and returned to the van.

The woman discovered the theft when she reviewed her home surveillance camera.
