In a series of incidents involving porch pirates, two homeowners successfully caught and confronted thieves attempting to steal packages from their doorsteps.

When he caught the thief in the act, the thief tried to escape but ended up getting stuck in a snowbank with his unreliable getaway car. The homeowner calmly watched as the thief struggled to free the vehicle. Eventually, the police arrived and arrested the thief. In the second incident, a homeowner in California caught a porch pirate on video taking a letter from her mailbox. The homeowner confronted the thief and a scuffle ensued, with the homeowner overpowering the thief. The stolen items were recovered, and the homeowner warned potential thieves that she was watching. Both incidents highlight the frustration caused by porch pirates and the determination of homeowners to protect their property.
