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.
