Two Phoenix, Arizona residents had their grocery order hand-delivered by police officers after their DoorDash driver was arrested en route to deliver the goods. Waden Khan and his roommate were waiting for their DoorDash order on May 30 when they noticed the driver had not moved for over an hour after picking up the order, as reported by AZ Family [1].
The residents were startled to see two police cars pull up outside their home. Phoenix Police Department officers took charge of delivering the order after the driver was arrested for an outstanding warrant. Officer Eric Dillard, who made the arrest, decided to complete the delivery himself to ensure both the residents and the driver were accommodated.
