USPS suspends delivery service in Pasadena neighborhood after postal worker shot at

PASADENA, Texas (KTRK) — The U.S. Postal Service has suspended its mail delivery service indefinitely to a Pasadena neighborhood after they say a mail carrier was shot at.

This happened on Thursday on Sandlewood Drive near Sandlehurst.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), the law enforcement, crime prevention, and security arm of USPS, is now investigating along with Pasadena police.

“I did ask how long this is going to be, and she said it could be a week. It could be a month. It could be longer. We don’t know,” Rick Pena, who lives in the neighborhood, said.

Pena is looking forward to getting back his mail delivery service. His only option is a 15-minute drive to the nearest post office.
