NEW YORK – A Queens mail carrier who was robbed at gunpoint is speaking out about the harrowing encounter. It happened Monday on her regular route in Maspeth.
Describing the ordeal from the office of her attorneys Levine & Blit, the mail carrier asked to remain anonymous.
She said she was seated on a ledge at the corner of 55th Avenue and 63rd Place waiting for a mail truck delivery when a stranger greeted her.
“He said something about the weather, ‘How are you holding up?’ or ‘How’s the weather?’ And I said, ‘Oh, thank you. Everything’s fine. Have a great day.’ Then, he passed by,” the mail carrier said.
Security footage shows the suspect, dressed in dark clothing, turn back to approach her. She said the unknown male displayed a gun and held it to her waist.
