US postal worker robbed at gunpoint in Brooklyn, days after mail carrier fatally stabbed in Harlem

NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – A U.S. postal worker was robbed at gunpoint in Brooklyn on Tuesday afternoon, less than a week after a postman was stabbed to death in Harlem.

The 30-year-old woman was delivering packages for the U.S. Postal Service at Greene Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant around 2:15 p.m. when she was robbed.

Two men—dressed in black and wearing masks—pulled a firearm on her and stole all of her packages at gunpoint, police said.

The pair was last seen fleeing westbound on Greene Avenue with the stolen mail.

No arrests had been reported as of Wednesday.
