LAKEVILLE, Mass. (WWLP) - The Lakeville Police Department is currently investigating after finding approximately 80 Amazon packages left on the side of the road on Sunday morning. On December 22 at around 2:00 a.m., Sgt. Shawn Robert located three large totes in a wooded area off Bedford Street during his routine patrol, stated the Lakeville Police Department. The totes were unattended, and upon examination, he realized they were full of Amazon packages spread out across several feet into the woods. The totes were brought to the police station using a pickup truck to be inventoried and examined.

"I would like to commend Sgt. Shawn Robert for his discovery of these unattended packages while on routine patrol," Perkins said. "Sgt. Robert likely saved a Christmas headache for many local residents by noticing these totes and getting them back to Amazon, hopefully in time for a holiday delivery." Lakeville police are investigating further into the matter in hopes of determining the cause of the left-behind packages.
