A homeowner in Florida got the surprise of a lifetime when police showed up at his door.

The incident occurred on Tuesday, March 26, when delivery driver Richard Robertson, wanted on felony charges in Florida and Texas, was spotted by officers from the Titusville Police Department, reported FOX35.

Online jail records reviewed by PEOPLE show that Robertson, 40, was arrested on two felony counts for failing to register as a sex offender, one felony count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and one misdemeanor count of driving with a suspended license.

According to ring camera footage posted by homeowner Joe Neu on Facebook, after Robertson's arrest, officers fulfilled his pending delivery order.

The footage shows an officer approaching Neu's home asking, "Hello, uh, you ordered groceries?"

After Neu's wife opens the door and says yes, the female officer explains, "Your driver got arrested, so we’re delivering your groceries."

Although Neu's wife isn't seen in the footage, she is heard responding, "Wow, I haven't had that before," which makes the officer smile and say, "No, but we didn’t want your groceries to go to waste so we have all your groceries and we’re going to bring them in for you."

"However, we remain compassionate and appreciative of our citizens, and we’re happy to complete the delivery of paid groceries to a valued community member," the statement continued.
