Postal worker shot over snail mail

FROM STNG WIRE REPORTS

A postal worker was shot in the leg Tuesday night on the Far South Side reportedly after a neighbor became angry that he was delivering the mail too late.

A Calumet District police captain said a witness heard a person yelling that the 31-year-old postal worker was delivering the mail too late and then heard a shot.

"I think they wanted him to deliver the mail faster," the captain said. - :shock:

Police News Affairs Officer Tom Polick said the man was shot in the leg about 6:30 p.m. in the area of West 118th Street and South State Street. He was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn in "stable" condition.

The captain said the postal worker was walking his route with his mail cart when he was shot.

"Nobody knows where the shot came from," the captain said. "It was really dark."

If that happened here, you'd still get coded for failing to complete without notifying the screws and willful delay :roll:
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

Shooting him in the leg isn't going to get their mail faster, is it?
