A Florida man was arrested last weekend when he allegedly stole an Amazon van and drove more than 20 miles before he was apprehended at a gas station.
On February 18, a driver for Amazon was operating a company van while delivering packages in Ormond Beach, which is just north of Daytona Beach. While at one of the addresses on his route, the driver encountered a man who reportedly climbed into the driver’s seat of the van and started the vehicle. The driver tried to prevent the man from taking the van, but the alleged thief drove away.
According to reports, the Amazon van had a real-time video camera in the vehicle, and when the management learned about the alleged theft, they began using the feed to track the location. They reported that they could see the driver, and he seemed to be drifting in and out of consciousness. The authorities were notified about the situation.
