A Levittown woman is accused of stealing Christmas decorations from homes in the North Park section last month.
Falls Township police say 44-year-old Michelle Schramm stole over $150 in decorations from homes in the 20 block, 30 block, 40 block and 50 block of Nutmeg Lane on December 9 and December 10. All of the thefts happened at nighttime, court papers filed by Officer Matthew Killeen state.

Schramm became a suspect in the case after a quick-thinking officer realized a witness description of the thief’s car matched the description of the 44 year old’s, who is known to police. The officer arrived at Schramm’s Kenwood Drive home and found stolen decorations set up out front, Lt. Hank Ward said.
Here’s a list of items Schramm allegedly stole:
- 25 candycane lights
- 1 North Pole sign
- 2 directional signs
- 1 “Santa, stop here” sign
- 2 solar snowflake lights
- 3 strings of red and green lights
- 1 large, lighted snowman
- 4 lighted Christmas trees
Schramm was arraigned last week on multiple counts of theft, receiving stolen property and loitering or prowling at night.
