In an example of a great collaborative effort between Pasco and Kennewick police, a suspect who is believed to have stolen dozens of UPS and FedEx packages is in custody.

20-year-old Andres Garcia is in custody after he was caught stealing packages that had been left on a doorstep by a delivery truck.  Authorities had issued a bulletin a few days ago looking for him.  He is believed to have stolen numerous delivery items.

Police said he would follow parcel home delivery vehicles at a distance in his car, wait for them to drop packages at or near the front door, then go up to the home and steal the item or items.

He was arrested on previous outstanding warrants, and here's hoping he actually winds up in jail for a lengthy amount of time.
