USPS customers left in limbo after 200 packages are dumped in middle of road

THE US Postal Service has caused concern among customers after about 200 packages were dumped in the middle of a Florida road.

While the agency did admit to their mistake, they didn’t explain how such a mess could have happened.

The USPS told The U.S. Sun that it “takes seriously the security and sanctity of the mail.”

The agency explained what happened and how it cleaned up the mess, but didn’t go into detail about how such a thing could have occurred.

“A postal truck inadvertently dropped some of its load along a local roadway in Lee County.

“Postal officials, with the help of local law enforcement, retrieved all packages, which have since been transported to their intended destinations,” the USPS said.

The agency also shared its regrets for the debacle.
