As it gets closer to Christmas, a Lexington man is warning others about those crooks who believe it’s better to receive than give.
Hiding in a high, dark corner on Steve Good’s porch, a security camera is always rolling. It’s ready for whatever may come to the door.
“Just out of the corner of my eye I noticed somebody coming up the sidewalk, and my first assumption was he was going to sell something and I was going to actually ignore him,” Good said.
Good couldn’t ignore this visitor, as the cameras showed him running away with $200 worth of Christmas gifts recently delivered.

When the man came back to grab more packages, Good was waiting at the front door.
“He tries to get cool with me and ask me if I know where somebody lived, which I knew that wasn’t the case,” Good said. “I told him I can see my packages, you need to give them back.”
Good said he got all but one of the packages back, as the thief threw them out his car window while speeding off.
He was also able to make note of the man’s license plate number along with the shirt he was wearing.
“When I looked a little closer, it’s the [University of Kentucky] College of Social Work sweatshirt, and that’s not a t-shirt you’re going to buy at Walmart,” he described.
Good said making this public isn’t about getting his last package back, it’s about making sure others keep theirs.
“If he steals this, he’s going to get some kid’s Christmas present and they’re not going to have Christmas,” said Good.
