MIAMI – Some South Florida residents are going to nice lengths to offer protection to — of all issues — their holiday decorations, after a large rash of thefts.
Surveillance video has captured a lot of the Grinch’s movements, like out of doors of a Miami house belonging to a person named Ricardo, positioned close to Southwest Sixth Street and 63rd Avenue.
He stated he used to be stunned any individual would cross in the course of the effort, including that his spouse loves the holiday decorations, however this yr, he boxed the remainder of them up, announcing they aren’t reasonable.
At Ray Camacho’s house on Fontainebleau Boulevard in Sweetwater, every other depressing Scrooge were given away together with his decorations.
“I went outside and sure enough, there’s nothing there,” he stated.
He and his spouse are new householders and had been so satisfied to position up a large Santa Claus.
“I personally wanted a 20-foot one, my wife wanted the 8-foot one, so we compromised and got the 8-foot one,” Camacho stated. “It looked great.”
The Christmas crimes don’t seem to be so remoted: on Monday, Local 10 News reported on a Grinch in Miami Gardens and a few holiday heists in Hialeah.
Some of the ones sufferers wish to get started hanging their decorations up at the roof, whilst others are having a look at AirTags to offer protection to those inflatables for years yet to come.
“I mean of course I was upset about it, but I decided, you know what? I’ll double down. I’ll get a bigger one and see if this guy can take that too and we’ll keep going. He’s not going to stomp on my Christmas spirit, that’s for sure,” stated Camacho.
