They located 23-year-old Terrill Peuse, Jr. and discovered several packages addressed to other people in his truck.
Police contacted the recipients, who confirmed purchases made online had been stolen from their homes.
Peuse is accused of taking packages from four different homes.
He faces four counts of theft.
Lewis says the case is a reminder for people to plan ahead if they are expecting a delivery.
