Shocking doorbell footage has emerged showing the moment a FedEx driver was brutally assaulted by an unknown assailant for a package of mobile phones.
The woman who shared the footage, Naomi, posted it on her TikTok explaining it was from her sister-in-law’s home in Columbus, Ohio.
A FedEx delivery worker can be seen arriving the property holding a package while another vehicle is parked behind his truck with two people inside.
As the worker nears the door, activating the camera, a man can be seen approaching him from the vehicle.
He makes a remark towards the worker before lunging at the package, as the two grapple with each other from the front porch and into the yard.

The man manages to get his hands on the package and starts running away as Naomi’s brother-in-law sprints from the home to also give chase as the clip ends.
In a commentary of the footage, she said: ‘I posted on my Facebook and it has been happening.
‘People are working pairs, if you look at the video there is another car behind the FedEx car.
‘It is so scary to me because anything could have happened, what if she had opened the door and she had the package in hand.
‘The more I think about it the scarier it gets. What if my brother-in-law got shot and stabbed, or jumped and beat to death. Or the FedEx driver. This is a really crazy world.’
Since she shared the clip it has been seen more than 90,000 times, prompting viewers to echo her concerns.
