HINSDALE, IL – A Chicago man is accused of stealing a Nordstrom package valued at nearly $800 from a front porch in Hinsdale, police said.

On Wednesday, while investigating porch piracy around town, Hinsdale police identified Andres Martinez Osorio, 35, of Hinsdale, with a theft in the 600 block of South Lincoln Street, police said. It occurred about 3 a.m.

"According to security company SafeWise, it is estimated that the Chicago metropolitan area will lose approximately $254 million in deliveries to porch pirates in 2025," DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin said in a news release. "There are simple steps you can take, however, to protect yourself from porch pirates, such as installing cameras, outdoor lighting and a secure lockbox that requires a code for access, requesting signatures, and delivery tracking."
