Police: More Stolen Property Recovered in Holiday Robbery Spree

Southold Town Police ask that those who think they are also victims of the crime call detectives.

The following information was supplied by the Southold Town Police Department. A criminal charge is only an accusation, and does not indicate guilt.

After two Mattituck women were arrested earlier this month on charges of stealing delivered packages off the porches of Aquebogue residents, Southold Town Police report on Sunday that stolen property has been returned to 33 more individuals from Laurel to Orient in Southold Town. This will most likely results in 33 counts of misdemeanor larceny charges, police said.

The investigation is still active and charges are pending, and a number of unclaimed items are still being held. If you feel you may have been a victim and are missing property, please contact Southold Town Police Det. Harned at 631-765-2974.
