Amazon driver steals leaf blower, police say

Vermont State Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying an Amazon delivery driver accused of stealing from a Cornwall residence earlier this month.

Troopers from the New Haven Barracks responded about 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 5, to a home on Parkhill Road, where the resident reported a theft, police said.

According to investigators, the delivery driver had dropped off a package at the home of 58-year-old Robert Knippler before allegedly taking a leaf blower from the property.
