Versailles man drives 100+ miles, picks up live animals delivered to wrong state

DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — A man is back from southeast Indiana after retrieving dozens of live animals that should have been delivered to Darke County.

On July 9, 80 chicks were shipped in a box through the United States Postal Service location in Oceola, Ohio, just west of Mansfield. Greg McGlinch was the intended recipient of the birds in Versailles, Ohio.

A few days after the birds had shipped, McGlinch learned the chicks were at a USPS location in Versailles, but not the one in Darke County. The birds were over 100 miles southwest of McGlinch at the Post Office in Versailles, Indiana.

Although McGlinch paid the $30 shipping fee, as well as a “newly added $15 surcharge,” he made the trek to Ripley County, Indiana to get them on July 12
