Mr D fires sexually inappropriate driver
Online food service delivery company Mr D has terminated the contract of one of their drivers following a video showing the man inappropriately touching himself after delivering a woman her food.
The video shows the driver handing over the food, taking out his genitals and touching himself as the woman walked away.
It is unclear where the incident took place.
The video was published on Wednesday on Twitter – and led to a fierce backlash from social media.
