Fire destroys mail truck in Augusta, GA

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – A mail truck erupted into flames Monday afternoon in the Goshen Plantation neighborhood.

The truck was removed quickly after the fire, but there was a large black spot on the street and in an adjacent yard. A tree and mailbox were scorched and a garbage cart was partially melted.

We’ve reached out to the U.S. Postal Service about what residents of the south Augusta neighborhood off Old Waynesboro Road should do if they believe their mail was lost.
