A FedEx driver jumped from the back of his work truck as a thief drove off with it.
On Saturday around 3:15 p.m., Atlanta police responded to 1708 Melrose Drive SW for a possible carjacking, which turned out to a stolen vehicle call.
The FedEx driver, a 23-year-old man, told police he was delivering packages and was in the back of the delivery truck when he realized the vehicle was being stolen.
He told police he sustained lacerations after jumping from the truck. He was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
A short time later, police found the FedEx truck abandoned at 1069 Deckner Ave. SE.
Officers are now canvassing the area for the suspect.
