A man dropping off a DoorDash order at a residence was arrested after allegedly returning to the home the following day with a firearm, presumably because he felt gypped since he was not given a tip.

On the evening of June 4, a family in Vancouver, Washington, ordered approximately $100 worth of food using the DoorDash app. When the delivery driver dropped off the food, the recipients did not choose to give him a tip. He initially left without incident, but according to reports, he returned the following morning to attempt to collect the gratuity.

The man who lives at the residence reported that his 19-year-old daughter answered the door, and it caught his attention when he heard someone getting aggressive towards her.
