This morning the Lasership guy dropped off a parcel on Simpson Ave (where I live) and placed it between the swinging outer door and the security door without ringing the doorbell. I didn't get to see the Lasership courier by the time I got to the door.
I picked it up 15-30 seconds later and went back inside (I live on the ground level), then 5-10 seconds later I hear someone walk up the steps, open the swinging door, and that's when I saw approximately a 5'6" asian (possibly Korean, I'm Korean, and my gut feeling was that he was Korean in his late 30's to early 40's), but it could have been a mexican guy. He was wearing a ballcap (possibly blue color).
He walked back down the steps to his mini-van (beige color? Non-new or very old model with license plate 311LV or something like that) and drove away before I could get my camera. It seems like he's following parcel trucks and stealing parcels on quiet neighborhoods.
I reported it to the Somerville PD, just thought the community should know.
P.S. Recent comments suggest the same person could have been the courier.
P.P.S. It probably was the courier.
P.P.P.S. My UPS package that arrived is now missing.
P.P.P.P.S. A neighbor delivered my missing UPS package (delivered to wrong house, I guess).
