PLYMOUTH MEETING, PA — Crates full of hundreds of Amazon packages were littered across West Germantown Pike in Plymouth Meeting late Wednesday, and officials are still scrambling to figure out exactly what happened.
The packages blocked the roadway in the early morning for hours until they were pushed to the side.
The incident occurred near the Plymouth Meeting Mall at some point overnight.
Packages remained there early Thursday as crews worked to gather them together.
Police have not said what happened, and Amazon has not yet issued a public statement. Patch has reached out to the company for comment.
Many of the packages were damaged or opened with their contents spilling out.
More information will be provided as it becomes available.
