THIS is the moment a brazen couple are caught caught on camera stealing Christmas parcels from a neighbour’s wheelie bin – before stashing it in their baby’s pram.
The scheming pair were caught on a Ring doorbell camera in Keith Court, Partick, Glasgow, swiping the parcel and seemingly concealing it in the bottom of their child’s buggy.
The video shows the man, dressed in black trousers, a black cap and an orange and black North Face jacket, opening the green wheelie bin to throw in some rubbish when he sees the parcel and shamelessly lifts it out, before handing it off to the woman.
The blonde-haired female, dressed in grey joggers, a grey hoodie and black trainers, walks on behind her thieving partner, pushing the child in the pram.
As he hands her the parcel, she unflinchingly pops it into the undercarriage of the buggy and the pair walk off together forllowing the theft on Tuesday, November 26.
Now the woman whose parcel was stolen has spoke of her fury at the brazen theft of what should have been Christmas gifts for her son.
She says the parcel included t-shirts and a bluetooth speaker and blasted the theives for their “callous” theft.
She told Glasgow Live: “You should be ashamed of yourselves. I know everybody has hard times but that’s not an excuse.
“There’s no consideration for anybody else but yourselves. What you are doing is totally wrong.
“How would you like it if somebody stole your kids’ Christmas presents? If the shoe was on the other foot, you wouldn’t like it.”
The woman says the pair had taken someone else’s parcel and were disposing of the wrapping into her bin, when they spotted hers too.
She said: “They took someone else’s parcel, put the wrapper in my bin and then took mine. I looked back at the footage and couldn’t believe how callous they had been.
“You can see them open another parcel, they’ve taken the wrapper off and thrown it in my bin before taking my parcel. It’s terrible.
“I am disgusted and angry he has given it to her and she’s put it under the pram.
“I would urge communities and neighbours to look out for and support each other.
“Be more aware of what’s going on, if you see anything suspicious let other neighbours know.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “On the afternoon of Tuesday, 26 November, 2024, police received a report of the theft of a parcel from the Keith Court area of Glasgow.
“Enquiries are at an early stage.”
