FOX 5 – FOX 5 has confirmed there’s an investigation into allegations of a postal service employee dumping mail instead of delivering it in Southeast D.C.
The Postal Service’s Office of Inspector General says they’re working to learn more about piles and even boxes full of mail being tossed into a dumpster in the Fort Stanton neighborhood.
FOX 5’s David Kaplan spoke to a property manager Wednesday who said about five separate times over the last five or six months, she’s reported finding fully rubber-banded bunches of mail in a dumpster near a property on the 1800 block of Gainesville Street in Southeast. But she says what was dumped at some point in the last day — which appeared to be two full crates of undelivered mail — was the biggest amount.
