A delivery debacle has taken a disturbing turn in Peoria, as police made an arrest Sunday afternoon following an alleged indecent incident involving an Amazon delivery man. The Peoria Police Department responded to the area of 83rd Avenue and Northern at approximately 1:00 p.m. after receiving complaints, according to FOX 10 Phoenix.
Officials identified the suspect as 24-year-old Ronny Gonzalez Mendoza, an Amazon contractor tasked to quickly deliver packages to the customers' doorsteps. Mendoza is now facing accusations designed to publicly stain his record — a misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure. As the investigation continues to unfold, the police have yet to release specifics about what led to Mendoza's present predicament.
An Amazon spokesperson, tight-lipped in deference to the ongoing legal process, said the company is "in coordination with police," but directed further inquiries back to law enforcement, reports FOX 10 Phoenix. As protocol dictates, Amazon remains hands-off, letting the justice system take the wheel from here.
The Peoria Police Department has corroborated the report of the arrest, emphasizing Mendoza's status as an Amazon delivery driver, according to 12 News. With the suspect in custody and the charge laid plainly on the table, the police are now cautiously navigating the ongoing investigation to fully peek into the circumstances surrounding this charge.
As the case develops, more details are expected to emerge.
