Former Stamford Postal Employee Accused Of Stealing Mail Arrested After Pursuit

STAMFORD, CT — A 34-year-old former Stamford postal employee accused of stealing mail and checks was arrested last week following a brief pursuit and standoff, according to the Stamford Police Department.

Authorities had been looking for Blount for weeks— even offering a $100,000 reward for information on her whereabouts — when Stamford police and the United States Postal Inspection Service tried stopping her in a silver Mercedes Benz with Georgia license plates just after 4:30 p.m. on Broad Street on June 17, Assistant Stamford Police Chief Richard Conklin told Patch.

Blount sped off, Conklin said, and the vehicular pursuit was aborted “because she was driving in a very reckless manner.”
