A routine package delivery in Escambia County, Florida, turned dangerous when a United States Postal Service Driver allegedly tried to run over a 10-year-old boy after dropping off a package at the wrong address.

According to PEOPLE, reports from WALA, WKRG, and the Pensacola News Journal stated that 41-year-old William White has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, petit theft, and criminal mischief following the December 27 incident.

Florida Highway Patrol officials said White mistakenly delivered a package to the child’s home on Kingfisher Way.

“The child, whose family owns that residence, saw the package was meant for a different address,” FHP reported. The boy then placed the package on his electric scooter to take it to the correct home.

Authorities allege that White perceived the child’s actions as theft. “White then purposely drove the USPS vehicle towards the child and ran over the scooter,” the FHP report said. The boy managed to get into a nearby yard before the scooter was struck.

FHP said White then grabbed the scooter from underneath the truck, placed it in his vehicle, and drove off after yelling at the child. When a family member pursued him, White reportedly threw the scooter into another nearby yard.

White was arrested on December 31 when he arrived at work and has been booked into the Escambia County Jail. Records indicate he posted $5,500 bond.

In a statement to the Pensacola News Journal, the USPS confirmed it is investigating the incident in coordination with local law enforcement.

“The U.S. Postal Service takes the safety and well-being of our customers and employees seriously. The Postal Inspection Service, the law enforcement arm of the Postal Service, is actively investigating this issue in partnership with local law enforcement,” the agency said. “We can confirm that the individual has been employed 2025. The Postal Service does not publicly comment on personnel matters.”

Authorities are continuing their investigation into the incident, which has drawn widespread attention for the alleged attempt to harm a child over a simple delivery mistake.
