The Liberty County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the community’s help to find a Christmas decoration thief.
The department shared a Facebook post from Ginger Shepherd, who said nutcrackers were stolen from her porch Nov. 28. The post included surveillance footage from her home’s security cameras.
“After Thanksgiving, my husband and son decorated our house beautifully,” Shepherd said in her post. “Then some [woman] decided to help herself to our decorations.”
Surveillance footage time stamps indicate the theft occurred about 2 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 28.
“I’m shocked at her stupidity,” she said. “Who would risk bodily harm or arrest for Christmas decorations?”
Shepherd asked for anyone who knows this woman to tell her the Pasadena police are looking for her. She also said she had turned over her security footage to police.
