Two men are behind bars for allegedly stealing packages that had been delivered to porches throughout the area. In a social media post, the Murray Police Department said it responded to northwest Murray for a report of package thefts around 1:45 p.m. on April 22, 2024.
The investigation determined that multiple packages had been stolen from porches and the suspects attempted to obscure evidence. 21-year-old Channer Smith of Murray, Kentucky and 19-year-old Keonte Kendall or Clarksville, Tennessee were arrested and booked into the Calloway County Jail.
Both men are charged with five counts of Theft of Mail and three counts of Tampering with Physical Evidence.
