Ultimate Grinch Steals Christmas Presents From Deaf Child

Police are looking for a real-life 'Christmas grinch' who stole toys from the doorway of a partially-deaf child in the United Kingdom.

The horrific tragedy occurred as the number of recorded parcel thefts in the country increased by 287 percent from 914 between August 1, 2018, and July 31, 2019, to 3,540 between 2021 and 2022, as Parcel and Postal Technology reported.

The 42-year-old Cheltenham mum, Victoria Bees, caught the heist on her Ring doorbell on Sunday.

The boxes seized were worth hundreds of pounds and contained gifts acquired during the Black Friday sales.

She likewise spent several instructional electronics for her partially-deaf two-year-old child this Christmas.

The thief also stole the mother's gifts for her five-year-old daughter.

She "put all her eggs in one basket" and quickly bought hundreds of products during the big sale to give her kids fantastic gifts.

"I know everyone's struggling, but how could someone stoop so low?" Bees said of the thief (per The Independent).

"She has basically stolen my children's Christmas, she's the ultimate grinch," the mother added.

While she stated she could get some of the things redelivered, she added that some popular children's toys are now out of stock.

When she obtains a refund, she will only be able to pay part of the price.

"I am completely aware they are only things, with covid and everything, Christmas is about spending time together but it's things for the people I love," Bees said.

"It's the fact it's a woman as well, it's slightly more upsetting, I don't know what it is but it's worse to me. I hope it beats her up that she's taken that from my family," Bees added.

She also criticized the delivery driver for leaving the products on her porch in public, saying they should try again if nobody is home.
