When he returned home, the resident was looking for his iPad and noticed that it was missing. His wife then returned home and found that her and her two daughters' jewelry boxes were missing from their respective rooms.
The wife then noticed that the Christmas presents that had been recently purchased had been stolen from the shopping bags in the dining room.
There were no signs of forced entry to the home and the family did not have any suspects in mind at the current time.
