A whole zip code in South Seattle is not getting mail delivered because of mail theft.
Apartments are letting residents know that thieves have apparently gotten ahold of a master key that works all over zip code 98118.
Surveillance video shows people in the act. The video owner asked KIRO7 to not show it on TV for safety reasons, but the video is circulating in the neighborhood. The U.S. Postal Inspector for the Seattle area is investigating this theft case. Meanwhile, USPS announced on Friday that robberies of mail carriers nationwide is already up nearly 50 percent this fiscal year compared to last year. It also said specifically, “There has been an increase in letter carrier robberies nationwide where criminals are targeting letter carriers for their Arrow and Modified Arrow Lock Keys.
To crack down on rising mail theft, USPS said it is changing out 49,000 arrow locks with electronic locks. It’s not clear yet when those changes may be coming to the Seattle area.
