Wild Video Shows FedEx Driver Robbed at Gunpoint in Massachusetts
A brazen robbery occurred on Friday in Harvard, Massachusetts, when a FedEx driver was ambushed by thieves as he was making a delivery. The shocking moment was caught on video surveillance.
According to the Harvard Police Department, the incident happened at around 12:43 p.m. when the driver arrived at a residence to deliver a package. A white, late-model Acura TLX with very dark tinted windows and a partial Connecticut license plate bearing the letters “BN” pulled up alongside his van. Two masked men got out of the car and approached the driver from behind, snatching the package out of his hands.
Although no firearm was seen in the footage, the suspects allegedly made verbal threats toward the driver, implying they were armed. A preliminary investigation suggested that the suspects were targeting the specific delivery, as a neighbor reported seeing the suspects’ vehicle parked nearby for several hours before the robbery.
The four suspects were later arrested after leading police on a multi-state chase, which ended near Providence, Rhode Island. A vehicle crash near Elmwood Avenue brought the chase to an end, and the three people who fled the scene were captured shortly after. One person who remained in the car was taken to an area hospital.
Police also used search dogs to search for any firearms that may have been discarded during the pursuit.
