On Feb. 13, property theft detectives with the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office received a report regarding a theft involving a package that was never delivered two days prior, authorities said in a Facebook post.
An investigation into the alleged theft resulted in authorities identifying 27-year-old Tyran Jackson, a FedEx delivery driver, as a suspect in the case.
Authorities also learned the missing package was located inside a storage unit at the 10500 block of Perkins Road in Baton Rouge, according to police.
While executing a search warrant for the storage unit, investigators discovered approximately $62,000 worth of stolen FedEx merchandise inside the unit.
Photos shared by the police department show piles of boxes, including a Nike footwear box and large quantities of cigars, along with other smoking supplies.
Following the discovery and cataloging of the items, Jackson was subsequently located and taken into custody, police said.

FedEx is culpable here.
Absolutely no way his manager(s) didn’t know about the sheer volume of packages that weren’t delivered...
...even if they didn’t know about them all.
OK, but I was thinking the boy ran away from his home in Thailand and changed his name. “Them again?” Yes, indeed, unfortunately.
“”The whole purpose of FedEx is to track packages””
Sole purpose? Track packages? Strange statement....
If the stolen item was a hockey puck, it wouldn’t be found.
Steal a high priced item and, for sure, it will have a signal to trace its location!
Yes, he does have the IQ of a puck that has been in too many slap shots.

Why do we have to spend so much time wondering what these posts mean? The thread is about undelivered Fed Ex packages, isn’t it?
I had a complete set of Michelin tire disappear into the fedex black hole. Showed as delivered. Vendor shipped another set but as far as I know the original shipment was never located.
Is “Tyran” a man or a woman, or something in between?
I knew a Tyrone when I was a kid. Last I heard of him, he was in jail for raping a White woman.
Maybe now he can pursue that career as an airline pilot.
I’m Amazon’s best customer. Get one or two deliveries almost every day. The drivers take ictures of packages left at my door.
Then I get an email from AMZ showing a picture of the delivered items they left snd question, “How was your delivery?” Always a thumb’s up. And asking hw I liked the person who delivered it. I answered one of those .when driver left big heavy box right in front of screen door, making it hard for me to open.
Driver had stopped next door, so I walked over and asked him not to do that. He never did again and neither did any other drivers. He was very handsome so I asked him why he was driving for AMZ. “Because it pays better than any other job I can get for the summer”. Probably going to law school.
AMZ rocks!!!
Same here.
Yeah... It was better when it was Flying Tiger Airlines, founded by WWII veterans that believed in being the best at what you do, instead of accepting worse service in the name of “virtue.”
FedEx has an Indian CEO who has been busy replacing Americans with fellow Indians.
Step 2: sell on eBay, Etsy, Facebook Marketplace, flea market, black market, etc.
But hey, he has a picture of it left at the residence. Some porch pirate stole it or the customer is lying.
Yep, that's the likely scenario. I wonder if the storage unit was near his route or if he had some other drop location arranged so he could return to the FedEx facility with an empty truck?
Yup no need to look
Every once and a while you hear of some mail carrier dumping mail down a drain, or taking it home and leaving it there.
I live in Ocean County, NJ and there’s a rather large post office in my town that has a large fleet of trucks and goes over a wide area.
Some years ago they busted one driver who had been dumping loads of mail in the bushes behind the post office!
Guy would go through the stuff looking for SS checks and things like that.
