As CBS reports, a UPS driver allegedly threw a heavy package over Naria Harutjunjan's front gate in LA's North Hills neighborhood last Wednesday at around 5 PM.

Harutjunjan says her little dog, Lulu, was hit by the box and died.

"I took the package and I saw my dog, she couldn't move anymore," the owner told CBS.

Neighbors helped the distressed owner get Lulu to the Mission Hills clinic, but sadly, the dog was already dead.

Security camera footage from Harutjunjan's next-door neighbor shows the delivery driver throwing the large package over the gate, and Harutjunjan's Ring camera shows the driver looking over the front gate and toward the package before driving off.

Harutjunjan said the driver failed to alert anyone to his delivery and didn't ring the doorbell.

"He could kill me. He could kill any baby playing here or killing anybody else," she said.

The distraught dog owner said she was bringing her other pup, Cookie, inside when the package sailed over the gate and tragically landed on Lulu.

Harutjunjan told CBS that as luck would have it, she did at least tell her pooch she loved her before she died.

"Yesterday, before I went to let her out, I took her, and I said, 'I don't know, Lulu, why, but I love you so much. That was the last time."

The outraged pet owner contacted both Amazon and UPS over the tragic incident.

UPS subsequently issued a statement, saying, "We recently learned of the situation in North Hills. We are certainly concerned and will contact the customer.

"We will investigate and take appropriate action."

Harutjunjan has since hired a lawyer and is considering taking legal action against UPS, the driver allegedly involved with her dog's death, and Amazon.
