Delivery driver caught on camera 'licking' customer's drink
A delivery man has been caught on camera appearing to lick a customer’s cup.
The Jimmy John’s delivery driver was filmed outside a northwest Chicago home in video obtained by NBC 4.
He’s seen holding a box and a drink and as he waits outside the home he lifts the cup to his mouth and appears to lick it.
A man answers the door and the driver hands him the box and the cup.
Emily Brems, who ordered the food, told NBC 4 her son, 12, watched video of the delivery driver after she received her order.
“My son came upstairs and said, ‘Just so you know the delivery guy licked your drink,’” she said.
The family didn’t eat the food.

Banti Singh, who owns the Jimmy Johns franchise the family ordered from, said the man’s behaviour “is not consistent with the standards we expect from our employees”.
Mr Singh added all staff were retrained in food safety and Ms Brems will receive a refund.
It’s not clear if the driver was fired but Mr Singh said action was taken against him.
