HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — Many residents of a northeast Harris County apartment complex haven’t received mail in months.
The frustrating situation results from repeated mailbox break-ins at The Selena apartments on Uvalde Road.
“We’re just the little people in between the corporation and the government,” resident Reginald Riggans, explained.
Riggans has had enough. You would probably be frustrated too if you hadn’t received any mail since the end of May.
He says this is far from the first time he’s dealt with this problem at this complex.
“Four years it’s been on and off with people breaking into the mailboxes… All of the mailboxes are kind of off where if somebody wanted to break in, you know if they have free time and will, there’s nobody there watching them. There’s no doors or gates or anything to stop them,” Riggans said.
