I recently had my Amazon package stolen off my porch by a neighbor who brazenly opened the box, took the expresso machine I had ordered and left the Amazon box (with my name on it) and the packaging outside their house for me to see! At least they could have hidden the box, the balls! I called the police via non emergency number and all they could do, when they finally showed up, was write a report. I understand the limitations of policing, resources and priorities that come with it - but it seems like thieves are truly emboldened now knowing that unless you steal from a corporation - police are inclined not to pursue the case at all. It’s truly frustrating and my experience matches the OP.
