CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- An armed robber has been stealing master keys from postal carriers on the South and West Sides, according to police.
Mack Julion, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers Chicago, told the Sun-Times that some carriers are considering not going out on their assignments.
“In any instance where they don’t feel safe, they certainly have the right not to deliver,” Julion said. “That can impede delivery to homes, residents and business that have these cluster boxes that would require us to use the key.”
There have been at least five attacks since August, according to police.
