Truck drivers are the latest victims of Memphis’ out-of-control crime.
Memphis police reported two separate incidents Tuesday, a FedEx truck on Winchester and a UPS truck on Summer Avenue.
In both cases, the armed thugs made off with dozens of packages.Robert Kwasniewski, a long-distance trucker, told WMC TV, he too was a victim of an armed robbery.
“Open the door to get out, and I see a guy run from the back of my trailer with a box in his hands. I’m like, ‘Man, what are y’all doing?” Kwasniewski told Channel 5, adding his regular route navigates him through the Bluff City.
“It’s a shame and it is scary, but I am not coming through Memphis anymore, and I’m not even going to stop,” he said.
