RICHMOND, Texas (KTRK) -- Two UPS workers are accused of stealing thousands of dollars worth of items meant to be delivered from a UPS facility in the Stafford area.

According to the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office, 39-year-old Jarray Hunt of Stafford and 31-year-old Christian Nunez of Sugar Land were arrested on Wednesday and charged with third degree felony theft.

The investigation began after the UPS Security Division contacted the sheriff's office.
