Three UPS employees were arrested earlier this month for allegedly stealing more than $19,000 worth of Playstation 3 consoles. The employees rerouted the systems to their day job at a sports company using stolen mailing labels, according to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office.

The men worked nights at UPS and shipped at least 20 of the PlayStation 3 units and 24 wireless video game controllers to their day job at Andrews Sport Company Inc. in Jefferson, using pilfered mailing labels, the arrest report said.

"They would take the (Andrews) labels and put them over the correct label . . . and then it would be shipped here," said Al Andrews, owner of the sports equipment wholesale company.

The three then sneaked the systems out the Andrews store.

Andrews said he and his company had no idea what the men were up to until a UPS security officer contacted him. Andrews said all three men have been fired from his company.
