A 31-year-old Colorado man who was working as an Amazon delivery driver through a third-party service was arrested after allegedly attacking a receptionist at a Lakewood dental office.
On the afternoon of December 15, the driver arrived at Emerald Dental in Lakewood to drop off a package. Instead of leaving after the delivery, he allegedly grabbed the 21-year-old woman at the front desk, tried to kiss her, and pulled at her clothing. Witnesses reported that he also grabbed her inappropriately. The woman fought back by hitting and kicking him when he reportedly lifted her from her chair. He then allegedly struck her multiple times.
A patient in the office said they heard someone screaming and rushed to help. They reported seeing the man, wearing an Amazon vest, pulling at the woman’s dress. When the patient tried to intervene, the driver allegedly punched him. A male dental hygienist intervened, and together they tackled the man to the ground and held him until police arrived.
