Carolyn Marvin was taken into custody and charged with disorderly conduct after she deliberately stood in front of an Uber delivery robot and refused to move. Speaking to ABC13 in Philadelphia, Marvin said, “I know they’re taking the jobs of human delivery workers, so I have been protesting them whenever I saw them by standing in front of them and preventing them from going forward.” Police arrived at the scene, asked her to clear the robot’s path, and, when she declined, placed her in handcuffs and arrested her. The encounter was recorded on video and has since attracted significant media coverage. Delivery robots have become a familiar presence on the city’s streets.
