Woman caught on camera stealing mail, arrested after homeowner follows her

Police have arrested 50-year-old Tawnya Foster after she allegedly stole mail from 28 houses in Cottonwood Heights, affecting 48 people, FOX 13 reports.

Foster was caught on camera stealing mail Thursday from Kipp Wawrzyniak, who followed her after she drove off.

Wawrzyniak followed Foster through Murray and Cottonwood Heights and onto the freeway, and saw police eventually arrest her outside a Starbucks.

Once Foster was arrested, Cottonwood Heights police found drugs, stolen mail and documents in her car.

“She’s got a history of it and she knows how to do it well,” Tazoi said.
