“I was feeding my son he was waking up to eat and my dog started freaking out,” Shane Lesperance said.
It wasn’t a belated Christmas delivery on Edgemont Avenue, but an early morning theft that had Shane Lesperance leaping out into the early morning cold.
“Came outside and they were actually walking with stuff in their hands,” Lesperance said.
Lesperance is one of several neighbors whose cars were broken into early Wednesday morning.
“When they saw me they turned around quick because they were walking this way and they just ran behind the houses and took off,” Lesperance said.
Moments later, police showed up and Lesperance learned that the thieves left with just four dollars from him, but could have taken much more from his car.
“Lots of presents, they left those thank God, yeah everything else was there,” Lesperance said.

Lesperance says this is not the first time his neighbor has been hit up by thieves. He says last year both his cars were stolen right from his driveway.
Police later took several people into custody for questioning while Lesperance is left wondering why the holiday spirit left the people responsible so soon.
“Values, none of them know values, get a job anything, but this on Christmas,” Lesperance said.
