MOUNT OLIVE TOWNSHIP, N.J. (Morris County) – A 45-year-old Flanders woman was arrested Wednesday and charged with stealing packages that were delivered to her neighbors.
According to police, at 3:29 p.m. on December 14, they responded to Overlook Apartment Complex for a past tense report of stolen packages.
