Terrifying moment dueling porch pirates race to house and fight over package seconds after Fedex driver dropped it off

A pair of porch pirates raced to the front door of a home in Pennsylvania to battle over an expensive package just seconds after a FedEx driver dropped it off.

The men seemed to be following the delivery man along a quiet residential road when they bolted for the porch.

The incident was caught on a doorbell camera and the owner of the home shared the clip on Facebook. 

In the video, the two porch pirates are seen sprinting to pick up the AT&T package and begin to wrestle over it. 

But one of the men starts swinging a weapon at the other and runs away with the expensive item.

The unassuming delivery driver is seen leaving his van and walking up to a property with a package as a white car is seen trailing behind.

He drops the item at the doorstep and the two porch pirates are seen getting out of their cars and racing to the doorstep.

One of the men shouts: 'Yo,' before they begin to wrestle over the package and the thief in the grey tracksuit brandishes a weapon he uses to swipe at the other.

He eventually wins the battle and picks up the package and takes off as the other man picks up an empty plant pot and chases him. 

They begin shouting at each other before they get into their separate cars and drive away in the same direction.

The owner of the property Kevin Lara shared the clip on Facebook and expressed his shock. 

'Just had a very expensive package stolen as soon as it got delivered from AT&T. Poor FedEx driver looks scared,' he wrote.

'Not really worried about the phones… but what if this guy would have hurt one of my family members…. Is this really what the world has come to?'

He also questioned how the men knew the package was worth a lot of money.

'Also how did they find out these phones were being delivered. Something fishy is going on here,' Lara added.  

It is not clear how long the porch pirates were following the delivery driver or how they knew which package to target.
