MIAMI — A 22-year-old man accused of stealing Amazon packages from a Brownsville-area home last month has been arrested, and Miami police believe he may be connected to additional unreported thefts.
Jeyner Francisco Monzon was arrested Thursday by the Miami Police Department in connection with the April 16 theft, according to an arrest report.
The victim, who lives near the 1500 block of Northwest 53rd Street, reported that several Amazon packages containing dog supplies and jewelry cleaning products valued at about $111 had been delivered to his home that morning, the report states.
Police said after being awakened by barking dogs and going outside to feed them, the victim checked his cellphone and saw that the packages had been delivered. They said when he went to the front porch, the packages were gone.
Investigators said the victim reviewed Ring camera footage, which showed a Monzon arriving at the home on a black bicycle at about 11:44 a.m.
They said the video showed the suspect placing the packages into a black backpack before leaving eastbound on Northwest 53rd Street toward Northwest 15th Avenue about a minute later.
A Miami police detective obtained the video and created a flyer seeking help identifying the suspect.
On Thursday, officers located a man matching the flyer and identified him as Monzon, according to the report. He was then taken to MPD headquarters, where he was read his Miranda rights and interviewed by detectives.
Police said Monzon waived his rights and was shown the surveillance video. His statement was redacted from the publicly released report.
Jail records show he is facing one count each of burglary of an unoccupied dwelling and petit theft of a dwelling or curtilage.
As of Friday morning, the Nicaraguan national was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, where he was placed on an immigration hold and his bond was listed as “to be set.”
Miami police said investigators believe Monzon may be connected to other package thefts that have not been reported. Anyone who believes they may have been victimized is encouraged to contact MPD’s General Investigations Unit at 305-603-6030 or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
