DoorDasher makes delivery, then takes off with Northglenn man's packages
NORTHGLENN, Colo. (KDVR) — It's an incident caught on camera that one Northglenn man couldn't believe.
A DoorDash delivery driver was stealing his packages right from his front door while dropping off food to his neighbor. The entire encounter took less than 30 seconds.

'So, they dropped it off at the door per usual. I never had problems before,' said Alex Teufel.
Alex is referring to his Pokémon cards he has been selling online to help make extra money. They were delivered just before 4:30 p.m. on April 21 in the 12000 block of Claude Court in Northglenn.
'I came out two hours after it had been delivered and it was gone,' he said.
Alex learned his neighbors had ordered food through DoorDash before the situation. His neighbor's surveillance camera appeared to catch the delivery guy not just dropping off the food, but then swiping his package in the process..
'It was a little strange. The video, especially,' said Alex. 'It's one thing if it's word of mouth.'
Alex says he reported the situation to police and his neighbors shared the encounter with DoorDash, but there's been no resolution.
'As far as I know, the neighbors that got the order, they weren't given much information,' said Alex. 'Just the first name of the driver and they will follow up.'
He estimates the packages were worth around $300.
'So, nothing like extremely detrimental, but more than I can afford to lose,' said Alex.

Reflecting on the situation, Alex knows he may not be able to retrieve his items, but he wants to make sure to share his story so others are vigilant.
'It seems pretty easy for them to do it, but then again, there's also bad apples,' said Alex. 'I hope that maybe this brings like, hey, wake up these guys, not all of them are doing the right things when they are doing their jobs.'
We reached out to DoorDash, and a spokesperson sent this statement.
'The video clearly shows this individual brazenly doing the wrong thing and stealing. We've deactivated the Dasher account and will reach out to the neighbor to help make things right. We have no tolerance for stealing or theft.'

Officers believe some protestors tried to make Molotov cocktails during anti-ICE protest
DENVER (KDVR) — Police say that 18 people were arrested during anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests that started at the State Capitol Tuesday evening. Police records indicate that officers believed some of the protestors were trying to make Molotov cocktails. Police arrest records show people were arrested for, among other things, obstruction of a roadway, failure to obey a lawful order, graffiti and second-degree assault of an officer. Over a dozen arrested in Denver Tuesday during ICE protest; police use smoke, pepper balls The protest was mostly peaceful, according to Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas. '(I'm) Disappointed, though, that there were agitators in the crowd that really wanted to try to taunt the police, create dangerous situations for the community,' Thomas said. Tensions grew as the crowd left the Capitol grounds and headed toward Broadway and Interstate 25. There was concern that the protestors would walk onto the interstate. 'Our first tactic was to use smoke as a deterrent and let them know that we are serious. We don't want to continue with the activity that you're engaged in right now. That was effective in getting a number of people to leave the area and stop their attempts to gain access to the highway,' Thomas said. The crowds in Colorado were protesting ICE raids taking place in Los Angeles and across the U.S. A spokesperson said they wanted to show their support for protestors in California. About 500 National Guard troops in LA are trained to accompany agents on immigration raids In one instance, arrest records show a protester scratched an officer, which led to an assault charge. 'They will be the cases that we'll see more attention from prosecutors and courts in terms of holding individuals responsible,' FOX31 Legal Analyst Christopher Decker said. However, Colorado 50501, which is planning the 'No Kings' events for Trump's birthday, said that it did not participate in planning the march on Tuesday night, but did promote the nonviolent march and peaceful protest, 'in support of immigration rights and demanding an end to the criminal executive overreach of the current administration.' The organization said that a group 'splintered' at the end of the peaceful event and proceeded to protest into the evening, which 50501 said was not represenative of the group's values. 'We wholeheartedly support everyone's right to protest,' the group wrote. 'This fundamental freedom is a pillar of democracy and a vital expression of invidual and collective voices.' The group said it will continue to commit to nonviolence, inclusivity and conflict resolution. DPD said pepper balls were also fired at the ground to create a deterrent and break up the crowds. FOX31 was told that many of the tactics that were used during the protest Tuesday night were implemented after the George Floyd protests in 2020. FOX31's Heather Willard contributed to this report.

Why Alex Cooper Decided to Share Sexual Harassment Allegations
Originally appeared on E! Online Alex Cooper is revealing when she knew she had to share her experiences with the world. While the podcaster does open up about allegedly being sexually harassed by her college soccer coach Nancy Feldman in her new documentary Call Her Alex, the project wasn't initially concepted to share her story—that is until one moment changed everything. "Towards the end of filming this documentary, new information came to light,' Alex explained in a special June 11 episode of Call Her Daddy. Similar to previous comments made during a panel, Alex alleged that she 'found out' the 'harassment' was allegedly continuing at the institution. 'I found out that other women had stepped onto that same field and experienced the same harassment I did.' And after speaking with one of the alleged victims, the 30-year-old continued, 'Everything changed for me that day. It really put in perspective that the harassment and abuse of power was, and is, so much bigger than me. It is systemic and it's happening everywhere." More from E!

Yet, Alex will be among the first to share how difficult it was to do so. 'It took me a decade to tell this story, and I'll be honest even saying the words right now, 'I was sexually harassed by my college soccer coach,' I still feel uneasy and uncomfortable and anxious with all of it,' she said, later adding, 'I think I've hesitated to share my story for various reasons. I think the first obvious is that it's really painful to talk about, and I think a part of my also feels embarrassed that this happened to me. The Call Her Daddy girl. In coming forward I was also afraid of retaliation. I also worried people would downplay or dismiss the severity of what I experienced because the abuse wasn't physical.' E! News previously reached out to Nancy Feldman and Boston University for comment but has not yet heard back, and neither party has publicly responded to Alex's allegations. But in learning that others said they had, and allegedly continue, to experience similar harassment—despite Nancy retiring from BU in 2022—Alex explained she knew 'without a doubt' it was time to share her story. 'Opening up about this in the documentary, is yes not only a way for me to share what I've endured,' she said, 'but also what women continue to endure everywhere every single day. So, I am here today, Daddy Gang, to say to any other victims: you are not alone, I see you, I believe you and I stand with you.' And while Call Her Alex became the place she decided to share her experience, Alex knows the story shared in the documentary—her story—is so much bigger. 'I know that this experience doesn't define me,' she said, 'and there are so many other beautiful moments of my life I also got to share over the course of filming this project.'

Aurora City Council will not hold in-person meetings until Kilyn Lewis lawsuit concludes
DENVER (KDVR) — Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman announced Tuesday that the city's council meetings will be held virtually to prevent disruptions while a lawsuit filed on behalf of a man shot and killed by police works its way through the court system. The message was echoed on the council's webpage. The webpage includes instructions for how members of the public can view the meetings or provide public comment on agenda items. However, all public comment listening sessions have been canceled until further notice. Family of man killed by Aurora police last May files suit against city, officer who fired deadly shot The measure was voted on during the June 9 council meeting, with seven in favor, three against, and two members in debate. In May, the council addressed a resolution that would change how it accepts public comment. 'As of right now, criminally, Michael Dieck did not murder Kilyn Lewis,' said councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky. 'It's in the court's hands now, and I would like to suspend this to be virtual until we have an official ruling from the court as to whether or not the city is liable in any way, shape or form for the death of Kilyn Lewis. Because if we are not in fact liable in any way, shape or form for the death of Kilyn Lewis, there is nothing left to discuss, and there's no reason for you to come back.' Jurinsky added that if the ruling takes years to reach, then she's on board with having virtual meetings until the ruling. Family and friends of Kilyn Lewis have held protests during several Aurora City Council meetings. The group has been seeking justice after the 37-year-old was shot and killed by an Aurora police officer in May 2024. In October, the district attorney ruled that an officer who shot Lewis would not face charges. In late May, Lewis' family filed a lawsuit seeking accountability from the Aurora Police Department in their loved one's death. It discusses excessive force, wrongful death and violations of the family's constitutional rights. 'This lawsuit is not just about a dollar amount. It's about truth. It's about making sure that the life of a Black man like Kilyn Lewis is not so easily discarded,' said MiDian Shofner, CEO of the Epitome of Black Excellence and Partnership and lead advocate for the family, in the May 28 announcement of the case filing. 'No amount of money can bring him back, but since America has made money the metric for justice, the family is rightfully pursuing every legal remedy available.' Coffman wrote on Facebook that he believes the group is simply looking for a check, and then they will 'go away.' Deadly shooting of Kilyn Lewis leads to new Aurora police SWAT policies: Report 'Until then, they will continue to disrupt our meetings. They have no choice but to continue disrupting our meetings because their lawsuit is meritless. This is why we have no choice but to stop all in-person council meetings, and go virtual, until their lawsuit has been concluded,' Coffman wrote. He noted that an Arapahoe County Grand Jury was also asked to review the case and declined to pursue charges against the officer. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
