At the Los Angeles Times, "UPS guy steals homeowner's FedEx package -- on video":
Getting holiday packages swiped from outside your door is an unfortunate risk of online shopping. Unless you’re Al Alverson, a Texas homeowner with a security camera.Continue reading.
When he returned home one recent day to discover that the FedEx package he was expecting was missing, he turned to his footage and discovered the culprit.
And it wasn’t the milkman.
“I said, 'Oh my God, it’s the UPS guy,'” Alverson told KHOU 11 News.
In a video that’s now posted on YouTube and circulating around Reddit, the Grinch in a brown uniform drops off a parcel at Alverson’s door and then soon returns to nab the FedEx package.
The box contained an iPad mini for Alverson’s daughter.
At first, Alverston told the news station, UPS was less than helpful when he called to complain. But once he posted the damning footage, the shipping company promised to send him a replacement tablet, he said.
The delivery man was a temporary holiday worker for UPS, not a driver, spokeswoman Natalie Godwin said. He was fired and arrested, though he has since been released from custody, she said.
