1600 block of Verdugo Boulevard in La Cañada Flintridge, a resident reported that as he was watching television at his home he looked out the window and saw a person walking toward the front porch. The family had previous packages stolen from their porch in the past so the resident investigated to see who the person was on the porch. He looked through the window and saw a suspect, described as a female Hispanic adult, on the porch with a recently delivered package in her hands. The suspect looked at the resident through the window and “freaked out.” The suspect placed the package back on the porch and walked southbound toward Verdugo Boulevard. The resident walked out of the house and followed the suspect. He witnessed her getting into the front passenger side door of a grey Lexus UX and drive westbound from the location. The suspect was described as 5’3” to 5’7” tall, skinny to medium build with long dark curly hair with blonde streaks and wearing a long sleeve shirt, blue jeans and a vest. 

The attempted theft occurred at 5:30 p.m.
