TEWKSBURY (CBS) - Police have arrested a Lawrence woman for stealing packages delivered on doorsteps during the busy holiday shopping season.
Jacquelin Suazo, 30, has been charged with three counts of larceny under $250 and one count of larceny over $250, police said. She was expected to be arraigned in Lowell District Court on Friday afternoon.

In some of the incidents, package contents were stolen and empty boxes were found on a street a block from one of the victims' homes.
Police said Suazo, who is believed to be pregnant, was staying at a shelter in Lawrence. Police said they later identified her as the suspect after receiving a tip from the public that the suspect was staying at the shelter.
