An Amazon delivery driver lost the tip of his finger posting a parcel through a letterbox 😬
delivery driver had to get his finger partially amputated after losing its tip posting a parcel through a letterbox.He instinctively pulled his hand away, but the sharp flap severed the tip clean off, leaving a bone sticking out.
‘Everything happened so fast,’ the dad-of-three said. ‘I felt a sharp pain on the tip of my finger as the flap came down, and when I looked at my hand, I was in shock.‘I was losing loads of blood and needed something to stop the bleeding so I walked to a pub a few doors down to get some tissue paper.
‘In the moment I forgot to take the bit of my finger lodged in the letter box, and I feel sorry for whoever’s house it was.Gareth had to have a partial amputation and has not worked since Gareth, from Plymouth, said his line manager at SCR Logistics didn’t believe him at first, and told him to drop the van off at the depot before going to hospital.The former electrical engineer has been off work since the incident on December 13, and claims he has not been contacted by his employer or Amazon.
‘That meant I had to wait at the yard for my wife to leave work and give me a lift – all while my finger was spewing blood.’ An Amazon spokesperson said: ‘We’re looking into this with the delivery service provider, and we wish Gareth a speedy recovery.’‘We wish Gareth a smooth and speedy recovery. He still remains part of our team.’
