Amazon supply driver is caught on digital camera throwing parcel at cat

This is the shocking moment an Amazon delivery driver hurled a parcel at a cat. 

In the doorbell footage the delivery driver can be seen stood outside a home in Bradford with a parcel in hand. He then appears to lob the package at a cat which seemed to be perched on a wheelie bin. 

The puss then runs away from the scene while the courier picks the package up off the floor. He then proceeds to hide the delivery behind the bin before leaving the address. 

Jodie Dobson, the homeowner and owner of her nine-year-old cat called Grayson, was horrified when she discovered the video. 

The 30-year-old said: ‘He thought it was a good idea to throw my parcel at the cat. Obviously he didn’t know he was caught on camera.

Amazon is now investigating the incident. 

Mother-of-three claimed that when she complained to Amazon they ‘were not very helpful.’ 

She said:’They didn’t seem to want to take it seriously. I was on hold for 20 mins and then they put the phone down.

‘They then told us they’d make sure that their drivers didn’t throw parcels again.’
