DoorDash Driver Horror: Kidnapped and Assaulted During Delivery

DoorDash Driver Arrested in Kidnapping and Sexual Assault

Tampa police have arrested a man connected with the sexual assault and kidnapping of a Florida DoorDash driver rescued by her family last week. Joseph Killins, 38, is charged with armed kidnapping and sexual battery for the attack on April 18.

During the attack, police said Killins held the DoorDash driver at gunpoint while she was delivering to a Tampa hotel. When she refused to give him cash, he coerced her into her car, drove her to an apartment complex, and sexually assaulted her.

According to the news release, the victim’s family tracked her location through her phone and rushed to her rescue. But Killins shot at them as they tried to get her back, the release says.

A composite suspect sketch has been released, and investigators ask for help identifying him. If you have any information, contact the Tampa Police Special Victims Unit at (813) 227-4901 or Crime Stoppers at 1-866-TampaStop.

One South Dakota officer went above and beyond after a DoorDash driver was arrested on Tuesday, WFLA reports. A video shared on the TikTok account of the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office showcased Officer Sam Buhr handing a food order to a customer.

The incident is not the first time law enforcement officers have stepped in to deliver food after arresting delivery drivers, a Hillsborough County sheriff’s office spokesperson told PEOPLE. In January, a sheriff’s deputy in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, was captured on a doorbell camera handing an Arby’s order to a customer.
