CHICAGO (WLS) — A suspect stole mail from a USPS truck in front of a postal worker in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood on Monday afternoon, officials said.
The mail carrier, a 57-year-old woman, told ABC7 camera that a person jumped in to the back of her truck, grabbed paper mail and ran away.
Chicago police said happened on South Aberdeen and West Madison just before 3:30 p.m.
She said the thief was not armed and didn’t physically harm her. The suspect just grabbed the mail and fled, police said, eastbound on Madison Street.
Police and a postal inspector were seen speaking with the mail carrier, who did not want to speak with ABC7 on-camera.
