SAN ANTONIO – Tx \u2014 Residents in the Fieldstone subdivision are frustrated. They say thieves have been breaking into their mailboxes and steal packages for over 8 months.<\/p>\n
Juan Marquez, a board member of the neighborhood\u2019s HOA says they installed cameras to catch the thieves. The cameras slowed the break-ins, but not for long.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s almost like a routine for us to wake up and see videos on our cameras, and just se how many mailboxes they broke into,\u201d Marquez said.<\/p>\n
The security cameras captured two men breaking into the mailboxes Friday morning. Another man was captured on video breaking into the mailboxes in May. Marquez says some of the break-ins appear to be inside jobs.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we notice the most is how fast they are in and out,\u201d Marquez said. \u201cBut some of them, it appears they have a key.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another video on the security camera by the mailboxes shows a man appear to insert something in the mailboxes, twist, and then unlock the mailboxes. One neighbor says the mail thieves cashed nearly $6,000 worth of checks and stole her identity.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was supposed to apply for my master\u2019s program. Now I can\u2019t because my credit tanked. It\u2019s affecting me across the board because my credit score went down 100 points now that they applied for other credit lines.\u201d<\/p>\n
The HOA says they have contacted the postal service attempting to get individual mailboxes installed for each home in the neighborhood. They say they were told individual mailboxes wouldn\u2019t be time-efficient for the mail carriers.<\/p>\n
We also reached out to the postal service to ask what they\u2019re doing to address the problem. They told us they are looking into the issue and will get back to us at a later time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN ANTONIO – Tx \u2014 Residents in the Fieldstone subdivision are frustrated.
