PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — A Philadelphia mail processing clerk is currently off the job after authorities say he stole 112 pieces of mail containing United States Treasury checks earlier this summer.

According to court documents filed this month, the theft happened on August 4 at the Philadelphia Processing and Distribution Center located at 7500 Lindbergh Boulevard.

The suspect, identified as Saahir Irby, was arrested on Wednesday on mail theft charges.

Court documents state that Irby has worked as a mail handler at the Lindbergh Boulevard center since 2021, where he operates mail sorting machines.

The Office of Inspector General said Irby was placed on “emergency placement” on Wendesday and that he is not currently working for the USPS.
