TAMARAC, Fla. – The U.S Postal Inspection Service is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the case of a recent theft in Broward County.
Surveillance video shows an armed suspect running on Nov. 16 in Broward’s city of Tamarac after ambushing a U.S. Post Office mail carrier near Northwest 64 Court before running away.
Inspector Ivan Ramirez, a spokesman for USPIS, said robbers have been targeting U.S. Post Office mail carriers in South Florida to steal master keys.
Ramirez said the robbers need to remember that stealing from a U.S. Post Office mail carrier is a federal crime and if caught they could face up to 25 years in prison.
