Shocking moment Tesco delivery driver ‘caught on Ring doorbell trying to kiss customer on the lips during delivery’

A TESCO driver tried to kiss a customer on the lips after he delivered her shopping, footage shows.

The supermarket's driver, thought to be in his 60s, grabbed both sides of the 33-year-old mum-of-one’s face before leaning towards her on her doorstep.

She said she turned away and felt his finger slide down her nose and lip. He smiled, said “sorry” and left when she tried to close the door. 

The woman, of Watford, Hertfordshire, said: “This has made me feel scared and anxious in my own home.”

The driver had already dropped off her shopping but returned a minute later.

Doorbell footage showed him ask: "Please don't be offended but how old are you?"

He said "honestly" when she answered, before then leaning in.

The woman reported the incident to Tesco but claimed the person she spoke with had "no sympathy".

She told he : "It’s crazy for a delivery man to try and kiss me on the lips. It’s unacceptable for anyone to do this.

"I think he could tell I am foreign and of Latin descent and he thought he might get away with it.

"I had no plan to make this public but Tesco’s [initial] response was not appropriate.

"Tesco needs to remind its employees – any delivery driver – of how to treat women who are alone.

"This has made me feel scared and anxious in my own home."

Police are investigating the incident. Tesco has also suspended the driver pending an investigation.

A spokeswoman said: "We were really concerned to hear about this and take complaints of this nature extremely seriously.

"We immediately began an internal investigation and have reached out to the woman to apologise and make her aware of the actions being taken on our side."
