That's when police say an armed masked man tied up the driver with a belt and drove the truck a few blocks to the 1600 block of Womrath Street.

The suspect was able to get away with a couple of packages.

The driver was not injured.

FedEx manager John Suarez says he spoke with the victim right after the incident.



"When he called me, he was in a really low voice. So I'm not sure if the guy was outside the truck, but he told me to call 911 and sent me his location," said Suarez.
