On October 18, the Mill Creek
Police Department reported that the master keys from a mail carrier were stolen (http://ssnoccrimewatch.blogspot.com/2016/10/mill-creek-master-postal-keys-stolen.html).
The master keys opened community mailboxes in the 98012 and 98021 zip codes.
According to this morning’s The
Herald, the U.S. Postal Service is replacing mailbox locks in the Mill Creek
area.
Also, an investigation continues
into the theft. Investigators are looking for two women and one male who could
face federal felony charges.
Until the locks are replaced,
authorities remind everyone to remain vigilant with their mail. Take outgoing
mail to the post office or other secure location. The blue mailboxes are still
secure since the master keys that were stolen do not open those mailboxes.
Also, if you see anyone acting suspiciously around your mailbox call 911.
