Hi All,


I'm hoping this is just a neighbourly gesture, but as none of our neighbours were home today or recognise the chap captured on our ring camera we're assuming the worst.


Keep an eye out folks, this was on Goodrich Road around 14:57. Walked to our door with a large cardboard box, clocked the parcel on our doorstep, went next door and leaned over the fence- took the parcel and walked up the road towards the Dawson's Height's end.


If anyone knows a white guy wearing a green polo shirt, green shorts and black sliders today, please let me know as we've been in touch with the police due to the contents of the parcel.

No, different guy- I need to down res the images so I can upload them later today.

Just to further update, he also took a parcel from our neighbours before leaning over the wall to take ours. The dummy box he used to approach and pretended to deliver was empty and addressed to 135 Upland Road- PM me if that's you and need any info.
I've seen two or three mentions now of carried empty cartons, preumably being used as a sort of camouflage. Are the people walking around with these or have they come by vehicle? Is there any possibility that they're combining opportunistic thieving with genuine courier work?

They were in a car as we heard the engine running and the door slam on the video. I think just opportunistic given the time from delivery to theft, but who knows- it sort of reminds me of the guys that just do the rounds checking skips for scrap, if you drive around long enough you might get lucky.


Anyway glitter bomb ordered as a "thank you" should they come back....

What should a person do about parcels being delivered to the doorstep only? I live on Upland Road which I understand has had several doorstep thefts. I've had 2 parcels delivered by Amazon in recent days and they were left on the step (doorbell rung) luckily I was home to bring them in pretty quickly so nothing lost. I feel bad for the delivery drivers as they have such impossible schedules but at the same time ...

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
