Two reader reports with porch-camera security video:

ATTEMPTED ENTRY: Mark sent this:

Wanted to make the Admiral neighborhood aware of these two individuals who came onto our property and attempted to enter our home. This happened on 6/18/2026 around 9:45 PM in the 2700 block of 37th Ave SW.

DOG-FOOD THEFT: This package thief may or may not have realized what he got from Robert‘s porch Thursday night:

A porch pirate stole a delivery of dog food from my front door near 39th Ave SW and Barton Street. I attached the video, which shows the thief and his vehicle. Other neighbors may want to know.

The first ones are pretty confident nobody is ready for them.The second one looks like he’s possibly driving a new $60-80k Land Cruiser with accessories on the roof rack.

Thanks for sending in the videos. We will keep an eye out for those dirt bags!

I’ve had a 35-pound box of cat litter stolen from my front porch 2 or 3 times! Thankfully, I can ship to my new job now. Amazon will only refund for lost packages once – then it’s on the recipient to figure out another solution like an indoor lock box. The outdoor lock boxes at 7-Eleven next door have been broken into multiple times, too.

The “gentlemen” are experienced at this as someone calling out to them did not rattle them.

Dog food thief looks like a walking Christmas tree. Good grief, pull up your pants, no one wants to see your butt but you sure are good at hiding your face.

Sorry, comment time is over.
