Delivery driver says 'raging' customer sent 'you're dead to us' cake to A&E
A delivery driver was left stunned as a "raging" customer asked her to take a cake with "you're dead to us" to an accident and emergency department.
Raven Walker admitted she was baffled to receive the bizarre request after accepting an order for a cake and roses on December 12. The red-faced 36-year-old says she got a 'weird look' from the baker but they completed the order for $27.99 (£22) - and even asked her if she thought it looked okay.
A viral image shows the vanilla sheet cake with red edible writing that reads 'You are dead to us' surrounded by green and red iced circles.

Raven has since speculated she could have been delivering it to someone who spends a lot of time at the hospital so they could give it to a 'cheater' in revenge.

The cake was delivered to a hospital which left the deliver driver "embarrassed" (Kennedy News and Media)Raven, from San Diego, California, said: "It's definitely the craziest delivery I've made. I was really surprised to see the message and just thought 'someone must be mad'. I asked the baker and he looked at me weird so I explained to him it wasn't for me and I was just doing a delivery. I was quite embarrassed to ask for it. They asked if it was okay and I just said 'I hope so'.
"I was very confused when I realised I was delivering it to the hospital emergency room but I knew there was security at the hospital and I felt safe. It's a pretty sick joke if it's for someone in the hospital but maybe the person I delivered it to was going to send it to a cheater. I didn't think to ask for an explanation because it's none of my business and I didn't want to get a bad review and be called nosey. It definitely made my day interesting."
Raven says the order came from an address around 3.5 miles away from the hospital but she's unsure if she delivered it to the same person or someone else.
Some users have speculated it could have been a joke for someone's last day at work or they're moving house.
