Medford Police are currently seeking assistance in nabbing an Amazon delivery driver accused of swiping a UPS package from a local home. The incident allegedly occurred around 1:45 PM on Wednesday as the driver was making a delivery, as reported by CBS Boston. Found within the stolen package were a pair of limited-edition “Stranger Things” Converse sneakers, intended as a gift for a young girl.
