ST. LOUIS (KSDK) - A neighborhood watch group in the Shaw neighborhood has sent out surveillance video with a warning about gift thefts.

The video shows someone stopping in a car in front of a house on Monday afternoon, and then running up the porch steps to steal a box, and then running away.

The neighborhood watch group says there have been several thefts just like this one in the neighborhood.

NewsChannel 5 contacted the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department Tuesday morning but have not heard back.
