The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is seeking help to identify a man suspected in a June armed robbery of a Capitol Hill mail carrier. USPS is offering up a $50,000 reward for anyone that can identify the suspect.
According to Postal Inspector Jeremy Leder, a man with a gun approached a mail carrier on June 30th around 5:50 PM in the loading zone of the Broadway and Denny post office. The suspect demanded the carrier hand over his mail bag, then fled the area.
Surveillance video showed the suspect was driving a white or silver Prius.
Leder told CHS investigators had some promising leads early on, but are now seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspect. No images or details of the incident have been made public through the Postal Inspector’s wanted website or through the Seattle Police Department. The TV program Washington’s Most Wanted was the first media outlet to have access to the suspect sketch last week.
If you have information on the suspect, call 911 or the U.S. Postal Inspection Service at 1-877-876-2455 and select option 2.
