Shocking Doorbell Cam Catches Destructive Delivery

An Amazon delivery driver's unprofessional conduct has been caught on camera after he was filmed throwing a child's Christmas present forcefully onto the ground. The incident occurred in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, on a Tuesday morning as the courier dropped off a parcel for resident Emma Drake. Video footage from a doorbell camera clearly shows the driver hurling the box, containing plastic toys, without any apparent reason before quickly departing.

Ms. Drake, the recipient, discovered the unusual delivery method only after reviewing the video footage. She expressed disbelief and concern that such careless handling could lead to damage, especially if the contents were fragile. Following the discovery, she filed a complaint with Amazon, which has led to an investigation into the driver's behavior. This event highlights a recurring issue with delivery services, with other recent incidents involving mishandled parcels and even a driver running over a dog.

This particular incident follows a pattern of customer complaints about delivery drivers' poor handling of packages. Previous cases include a courier throwing a lava lamp package and another incident involving a driver hitting a family dog. These events raise questions about courier training and accountability within the delivery industry, prompting responses from companies like Evri, which stated the driver involved in one incident would no longer be working for them.
