Glad to see they are actually investigating. I guess if the theft is big enough it gets some attention. Kind of surprised because these are not the affluent Zip codes. I guess though they are within walking and bike distance. Here is the story:

CHICAGO —The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information about postal vehicle break-ins.

Since July 1st, someone has broken into 14 vehicles and stolen mail.

The thefts occurred in the Ashburn, Englewood, Ogden Park and Roseland neighborhoods.

Anyone who lives in those areas and has not received checks or credit cards you were expecting should call the postal service to file a report. The number is 1-877-876-2455.

Postal vehicles were broken into at the following locations. Anyone with information about the break-ins should contact police.

The mob did this shit in the '30s. US Marines were assigned to guard the mail, they bought Thompson sub-machine guns specifically for this job. This is why The Marines had Tommy guns at the outbreak of WWII.

Give carriers MP-5s, it'll sort itself out real quick.

Set up mail truck stings and wait for the cretin to break into them. Unlike the Chicago PD sting with the truck full of Nike’s that got quashed because it was somehow deemed to be entrapment, the feds aren’t under any obligation to back off convictions.
