Thieves are hitting the Washington Park West neighborhood but the latest theft made one homeowner laugh.

To help deter crime, Brian Schwarz ordered three fake surveillance cameras and security stickers for his house on Pearl Street.

“They were $7 apiece, so I thought it was a good investment,” Schwarz told 7News.

The fake cameras were shipped to Schwarz but the box was stolen from homeowner’s front porch before he arrived home from work.
