An intriguing discovery. Sunday, December 22, while patrolling in the Lakeville area, in the American state of Massachusetts, a police officer came across a horde of gifts left unattended near a wood. Some research allowed us to get our hands on the mysterious Santa Claus the next day. It was actually an Amazon delivery man who, under pressure, preferred to abandon everything, report NBC News and the Washington Post.
The American police explain in a press release that they found three large bags filled with packages, scattered “several meters in the woods”, around 2 a.m. All the packages were first taken to the police station, but because no one filed a complaint or reported them stolen or misplaced, law enforcement ended up contacting the nearest Amazon fulfillment center. nearby, in Middleborough, and send them back.
The following Monday, an Amazon delivery driver, whose identity was not revealed, went to the Lakeville police station, where he gave more details. The man left everything on the side of the road on Saturday around 7 p.m. on Saturday, just three days before Christmas, because he was “stressed”.
“I would like to commend Sergeant Shawn Robert for discovering these abandoned packages during a routine patrol,” said local police Chief Matthew Perkins. Sergeant Robert likely saved many residents a Christmas headache by noticing these bags and returning them to Amazon, hopefully in time for delivery before the holiday ends. »
He also made it clear that he did not want to take legal action. “At this time, we are not seeking criminal charges and consider this to be a human resources matter for Amazon,” the police chief added.
