PALMETTO BAY, Fla. (WSVN) -- A South Florida family is furious after their Christmas packages were stolen from their front porch.

Oscar Sosa is not feeling the holiday cheer this year. "The holidays people tend to be more giving, but instead there's people taking advantage of situations," said Sosa.

Sosa woke up Thursday morning and expected to find several packages he ordered online for his family and friends, but in instead, "Close to $500 worth of merchandise essentially was stolen," said Sosa.

The packages Sosa was waiting for were delivered to his home. His surveillance camera captured a pair walking up to his front porch and took his packages. "It's kind of like wow, these people are literally slipping through houses finding anything that they can and just pick up," said Sosa.

This is not the first time the Sosa's have been robbed. Several ornaments were taking from the front lawn along with two pieces of furniture.

"They pulled into our drive way, which is almost a violation and walked to your front door," he said.

The woman on surveillance appears to be pregnant.

If you have any information on this robbery, call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a reward.
