A North Kingstown, Rhode Island man says his Ring doorbell camera caught an Amazon delivery driver urinating on the groceries he had dropped off on his doorstep.
The customer told ABC 6 that he got a notification from his Ring doorbell camera when the driver approached his doorstep and watched the incident take place.
“I was watching and he was acting strange. So I kept watching,” said the customer, who asked to remain anonymous, via ABC 6.
The video shows the driver going back and forth a few times and the customer said he continued to watch, but didn't realize what the driver did until he found a "wet spot" outside.
“I didn’t know what he did until I looked outside and saw the wet spot there on the ground,” the customer told ABC 6. “Then I went back inside and re-watched the video. And I put the volume all the way up and I could hear it.”
In the video, the delivery driver notices he's being recorded and crouches down to relieve himself.
“At that point, I realized that he had urinated all over my food,” the customer said.
The customer said he immediately contacted Amazon customer service, which he said was mostly unhelpful, but reached a corporate number and an Amazon representative apologized profusely and sent a cleaning crew to his house, while also reimbursing $100 in his Amazon account on Wednesday (March 3.)
Amazon spokesperson Braden B also released the following statement in relation to the incident, “We have very high standards for delivery partners and expect every package to be handled with care. This individual is no longer delivering Amazon packages.”
North Kingstown Police confirmed to ABC 6 that they are investigating the incident and will release more information as it develops.
