Boston police are asking the public to help identify people caught on camera in connection with a package theft and larceny from a building near 476 Warren Street in Roxbury. District B-2 detectives released images of the individuals this week, hoping someone recognizes them.
According to a Boston Police Department (Official) community alert, the incidents occurred near 476 Warren Street in Roxbury. The Boston Police Department says detectives assigned to District B-2 are requesting the public's assistance in identifying the individuals pictured in connection with the larceny from a building and package theft in that area.
Detectives are currently reviewing the facts and circumstances surrounding the incidents, per the same alert. No further details about the exact timing of the thefts or the number of people involved have been released.
How to Reach Detectives or Stay Anonymous
Anyone with information is urged to contact District B-2 detectives directly at (617) 343-4275. Those who prefer not to give their name have several other options: calling 1-800-494-TIPS, texting TIP to CRIME (27463), or submitting a tip online through Boston CrimeStoppers, the department's post notes.
The department says it will safeguard the identities of anyone who comes forward confidentially, and that people providing information this way can also submit photos and videos related to the investigation anonymously.
Part of a Broader Package-Theft Pattern in Boston
This isn't the first time BPD's District B-2 unit has turned to the public for help cracking a package theft case. In March 2025, detectives sought the public's assistance identifying individuals involved in a larceny from a building and package theft incident, according to a police alert from that time. In January, detectives issued a separate alert seeking an individual pictured in connection with a package theft at 614 Columbia Road in Dorchester, and in July, another Roxbury alert sought help identifying someone tied to a case involving an allegedly stolen debit card used for fraudulent purchases, according to Boston police records.
The pattern of complaints extends beyond police alerts. Boston residents have filed package-theft complaints through the city's 311 system, and those reports get referred to police rather than handled as routine service requests, since thefts are treated as criminal matters, as reported by NBC Boston.
No arrests, charges or recovered property have been announced in connection with the Warren Street case. Anyone who recognizes the individuals pictured in the department's alert is encouraged to come forward using the contact information above.
