Police arrested a woman last week for package thefts in Gramercy, Flatiron and Kips Bay that took place earlier this year.
Diana Anduja, 47, was caught outside 61 Lexington Avenue on Tuesday, August 13 at 3:20 p.m. after police said that she had removed four packages from the building’s lobby.
She reportedly did not have permission to be inside the building and when she was stopped, she was allegedly in possession of the packages, in addition to a crack pipe with alleged drug residue.
After she was arrested, Anduja was charged in connection with three other burglaries that allegedly took place in residential buildings throughout the area.
