MIAMI (KFTK) - It's apparently not just "porch thieves" that people will have to worry about during the holiday season. In this case the thief is allegedly the one driving the truck.

An 18-year-old UPS worker from Miami is facing theft charges for stealing packages worth over $1,000 from his truck.

Investigators say Emmanuel Reggin would hide packages when the full-time truck driver wasn't looking.  He'd then go back and grab them after his shift was done.

Some of the items stolen include tablets and a PS4.  He's since been fired and faces felony charges of grand theft.
