Memphis on the internet.
Thefts on Nextdoor
Cathy Allen’s security cameras caught the person on the right brazenly walk to her Midtown porch last week, steal a wreath hanging from her door, and calmly walk away. Mary Helen Randall reported on Nextdoor that someone stole an “enormous potted plant” from her porch in a theft that seemed planned.
Jordan Stallings said someone busted their car window to “destroy my car and steal my half-empty bottles of Bath & Body Works perfume.” Rachel Harrison said her car window was busted for “a work backpack with chargers, umbrella, and deodorant.”
“I don’t even know what to do,” she wrote on Nextdoor. “It’s almost pointless to report to the police because they cannot do anything.”
Starfield Leaker
A Memphis man was arrested last week for allegedly stealing and trying to resell copies of Bethesda’s open-world, sci-fi epic Starfield video game before its official launch, according to gaming site Kotaku.
Darin Harris allegedly uploaded videos of gameplay and of himself shipping copies of the game at a local FedEx store. (H/t to u/THE_YoStabbaStabba on Reddit.)
Tiger Time
The Memphis Zoo’s two new tiger cubs, Nakal and Suci, took their first steps into their exhibit last week. The YouTube video is worth a look.
