Amazon driver filmed stealing cat off doorstep

An Amazon delivery driver took a cat from a doorstep during a parcel delivery; the cat was later returned and police recorded a theft, with the investigation ongoing.

  • On Monday, January 19, a doorbell camera in Elland captured an Amazon delivery driver taking a cat from a Park Avenue doorstep, prompting West Yorkshire Police to receive a report around 2.30pm.
  • Carl Crowther was expecting a Zara delivery for his daughter on Sunday but was out on a 1.30pm work call; shortly after the package arrived, Nora went missing and they checked doorbell footage.
  • Video and family accounts show the driver stayed over six minutes before taking Nora, and Crowther said, `It needs to be quicker than 48 hours as she has heart murmur and is on medication`, after contacting Amazon.
  • Police recorded a crime of theft and say enquiries are ongoing, while an Amazon spokesperson confirmed the company is investigating and has been in touch with West Yorkshire Police.
  • Nora was returned safe and well to Crowther's family on Wednesday evening, but he declined to say how due to an ongoing police investigation.
