PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — An Amazon delivery driver who allegedly had a gun pointed at her and was called racial slurs by an angry neighbor is speaking out after the terrifying ordeal.
The driver, Linquita Schley, was delivering packages in Brentwood on Dec. 21 on Brownsville Road when the alleged incident happened. KDKA-TV obtained video of when Brian Dengler confronted Schley.
"What was going through my mind? I got flashbacks of my stepson," she said. "I was getting flashbacks of my girlfriend, flashbacks of my mom. I was getting flashbacks of my life and how grateful I need to start being for it."

Yeah, I've had Amazon trucks block my way, but I would not pull a gun, usually they are gone in 5 minutes.

It’s the racism in the former Union states that is just appalling. In the south, our grandmothers made sure we have manners.
I think AMZN would can them if they spent 5 minutes or more at any one place.
I’ve had protected class delivery deliver my pkgs to the wrong address on purpose after seeing my pro Trump/anti Biden lawn signs.
What an A-hole. There’s got to be a way to be civil to fellow citizens. Son of a B. I can hardly believe what I just read.
Somebody caught great video of it. Fits the narrative being pushed- ignorant, racist, white man against innocent, gainfully employed, black woman. Convenient. Programming.
Shall we start a pool when it’s determined to be a lie?
Sounds staged #falseflag
Is this a racial thing, or an Amazon thing? I’m leaning towards an Amazon thing
Well that old fool is about to have his firearms license taken away for this foolish stunt. Not to mention what other penalties he faces. What an idiot.
At age 65, he just gifted his entire retirement account to his defense lawyer.
His defense lawyer will use that money for a new ski boat, and the 65 year old will be lucky to be eating cat food.

A few weeks before this,Holly Vadella, a 59 yr old White woman was murdered by a black, drug dealing felon, early New years day.
She worked with my sister.

Also, quickly memory holed and race was never mentioned in either case. Racial violence, in Pittsburgh is a daily occurence and 99.99% black on White, Asian or Jewish.
This kind of behavior should not be tolerated. What the legal system does or does not do to this criminal will send a message to everyone else about whether or not this kind of behavior is going to be tolerated.
Also, the guy said he was upset because her delivery vehicle was blocking his driveway. Apparently, he lacks the patience and/or intelligence to realize that such blocking in only a very, very, very short term event, and that the driver and vehicle will be gone within a minute or two. This guy is clearly not the kind of person who should be allowed to own a gun. He is too impatient, and too irrational, to be owning a gun.
We have a black Amazon driver, not in a truck but car, deliver packages at 4 AMish. I’ve wondered how dangerous that is for him. We live in N Texas in a small city environment so maybe not as dangerous for him as being in a larger city.
People should know not to be stupid but they don't.
Not in defense of his foolish actions but we have all about had our guts full of race. Then there is the stupidity and nothing going right very often anymore. People are edgy.
I smells a juicy here!
There are people in our country that simply cannot control their impulses and in this incident, Mr. Dengler will pay a price for his lack of self control.
Re “ People should know not to be stupid but they don’t.”
Wisdom for the ages, right there…
I had a Black co-worker who once made the same observation. He was was raised in the South, but he never experienced people saying racist things until he moved to California. He said it's because people in the South know how to speak civilly to each other. When I moved out of California after living my whole life there and started to meet a wider sampling of people, I very quickly noticed that what he said was true.
