1. The UPS driver probably put the package over the gate because of theft.

I don't see how this is driver's fault. But it is very sad, yes. It boils down to whether the driver took "reasonable" care.
The video also states a neighbor claimed the driver "tossed" the package over the gate. I watched the video - it didn't look like tossing to me.
