Toronto police want the public’s help locating a suspect accused of swiping people’s packages right off their porches more than once. 

According to authorities, between January to October of last year, there have been seven reported porch thefts involving the same person.

In fact, police say packages were stolen from homes in the East York area and that the suspect would approach the residence on an e-bike, then walk onto someone’s property and take whatever was delivered that day before fleeing on their motorized vehicle.
