Porch pirate uses trash bag for cover while stealing package in California

"At first I thought they were messing with me."

SACRAMENTO, Calif — First-time Sacramento homeowner Omar Munoz is getting a crash course on the risks of package delivery. 

He moved into his Glenwood Meadows home in North Sacramento in January, and on Friday, he was stunned by what he saw on his surveillance system. 

"You see the bag coming to my door," Munoz said to ABC10 as he played back the surreal video. "At first, I thought they were messing with me."

A person can be seen crouched inside a trash bag, slowly waddling to Munoz's door step, picking up a small package and waddling away. 

Surprisingly, Munoz wasn't too upset. It wasn't a very expensive item, he said. 

"At first, I was kind of angry because it was something I was expecting. But at the end of the day, it was kind of funny," he said. "I take everything in the good way because that’s part of life. If you see the bad way of everything, you’re going nowhere."
