Glovo Courier Burned Swastika into Elevator Ceiling of Kyiv Apartment Building

He was also caught on various cameras more than once.

A courier for the Glovo delivery service in Kyiv, at 16G Vasylia Lypkovskoho Street, used a lighter to burn a swastika into the elevator ceiling and scorch a light bulb. The corresponding video evidence, with humorous text inserts, appeared online yesterday, January 8.

Although both the building and the elevator were new, and there was presumably a security guard or concierge at the entrance, this did not stop the young man from damaging residents' property. However, he failed to account for the fact that cameras throughout the building, including in the elevator, were switched on.

Even before committing the act, the young man looked around the elevator, presumably to find a camera. At first he did not spot one, but on his way back he saw a notice about a man who had apparently also committed an offence. After this, the young man returned, presumably to check the elevator for cameras once more.

On the second attempt, the courier spotted a working camera, put on a hood, took off his backpack and presumably tried to "cover up" traces of his act.

At the end of last year, another Glovo courier urinated on one of the city poles in Kyiv. An eyewitness posted the corresponding video on Facebook.
