Accused Rome porch pirate charged for second time
ROME — A 35-year-old woman is accused of stealing a package off another person's porch on Expense Street in Rome, according to the Rome Police Department. This is the woman's second arrest for such thefts so far this year.
Police said $251 in clothing was delivered to a home on Expense Street at 11:49 a.m. Jan. 21. Then at 4:14 p.m., police said Carrie L. Schmidka, of Rome, swiped the package off the porch.
Security camera footage in the area helped identify Schmidka and police said she was taken into custody on Monday on a charge of petty larceny. She is scheduled to appear in Rome City Court.
Police said Schmidka had previously been charged on Jan. 9 with two counts of petty larceny for stealing packages off a porch on West Liberty Street on Dec. 7. That case remains ongoing in court.
