Four former UPS workers at a Louisville facility have been charged with stealing more than $150,000 worth of Apple products while on the clock, according to court documents.
Caroline Neal for the Louisville Courier:
“Takiyha Jones, Jasmine Kimbrough, and Wael Ayari, all of Louisville, pleaded not guilty to complicity to engaging in organized crime and complicity to theft by unlawful taking or disposition from a building during a Jan. 13 arraignment hearing. Each of their cash bonds were set at $112,500, and they are currently being held at Louisville Metro Department of Corrections.

The fourth employee, Kavion Hudson, currently has a felony warrant for his arrest for the same charges, Louisville Metro Police spokesperson Matt Sanders said.”
“According to an arrest citation, UPS discovered the product loss at the destination locations after employees began to unload the trailers and found merchandise boxes left behind. An internal UPS audit found that the thefts occurred at the UPS Centennial Hub on Air Commerce Drive.
Video surveillance reportedly shows Jones and Kimbrough taking the merchandise and having backpacks with the products inside. Police said Kimbrough possessed a backpack that had 22 iPhones, four pairs of AirPods and one charging cable, which had an estimated value of $25,000. According to an arrest citation, Hudson’s backpack contained 45 iPhones.
Since the arrests, LMPD detectives have determined that a total of $155,000 worth of Apple products was stolen.
