This is the fifth incident I have heard about over the past month. I myself had two gift cards and some paperwork taken from my outside table about two weeks ago.
The low value of the items being taken means it’s likely not a legitimate criminal looking to profit. Therefore, it may be someone in the park with an issue, landscapers, passers by, etc.
I inquired with the office last week but they had no information.
I did also set my cameras on my lot to catch people who do things they shouldn’t, like touch other folks’ property.
The thing about thieves is that they cross the line from neighborly to disrespecting boundaries, therefore, when I spot them and they are placed in handcuffs and transported to the Collier County Jail, I’ll have zero remorse but 100% intent to prosecute and then take it to the civil arena.
No excuse for victimizing others.
