ORLANDO, Fla. – An Amazon delivery driver is recovering after being attacked on his route in Ocala, with his alleged attacker arrested based on body camera footage.

Dana Hilliker, 37, jumped into the moving delivery van and scratched the driver, resulting in his arrest, authorities said.

The incident happened Sunday on Northwest Gainesville Road near Hilliker’s home. According to the arrest report, Hilliker was yelling at the driver to slow down, but when the driver continued, Hilliker allegedly jumped in front of the truck, forcing him to stop. The report details how Hilliker then grabbed the driver’s side door, grabbed the driver’s shirt and scratched his arms and legs.

“The driver said he had to punch Hilliker multiple times to save himself,” the report said. The statement is included. Deputies then explained to Hilliker that his actions constituted theft, as seen in body camera footage.

Former Orlando Police Chief Orlando Rolón told FOX 35 News that Hilliker could have resolved the situation by filing a complaint with Amazon or notifying law enforcement rather than confronting the driver.

Hilliker is currently facing assault and burglary charges and will appear in court after posting bail next month.
