A family dog was accidentally knocked down by a car and killed in a hit and run by an Amazon delivery driver. Ring doorbell video footage shows the upsetting moment that 17 year old rescue dog, Alfie is hit by the van's back tyres and the driver leaves the scene, the Mirror reports.
Tragedy struck at around noon on September, 17 when the driver had been delivering a parcel for Linda before unknowingly striking Alfie. Heartbroken owner, Linda Banwell said that she treated her beloved West Highland white terrier like he was one of her kids and the loss of Archie had torn her family apart.
Linda, 48 complained to Amazon about the devastating incident and was eventually compensated with a £250 voucher for her grief which she has said is not measurable to the gravity of her situation. Linda does not believe the act was deliberate and Amazon said it is "taking this matter seriously and have reached out to the customer to offer our support".
