MAILBOX THIEVES STEAL
KEY AMID FISHING SPREE
Why go ‘fi shing’ when you can reach
straight into the fi sh tank?
That’s what a pair of suspects have
done amid the Glendale mail fi shing
spree as they are allegedly in possession
of a stolen U.S. Postal Service
mailbox key, authorities said.
On Aug. 20 at approximately 4:05
a.m., the two suspects attempted to
gain entry into a U.S. Postal mailbox
at 69-36 Myrtle Ave., in front of the
Glendale Post Offi ce using the stolen
key, according to a fl yer released by
the 104th Precinct on Twitter.
The suspects were not able to gain
entry to the mailbox and no mail was
stolen, police said.
Sources familiar with the investigation
added that there is no indication of
how the suspects obtained the key, and
the investigation is ongoing.
The 104th Precinct recently sent out
an alert to the community that said
there have been 38 reports of mail
theft so far this year. The precinct
continues to release tips online so that
residents can protect themselves from
becoming victims of mail crimes.
Anyone with information regarding
the above suspects is urged to call the
104th Precinct Detective Squad at 718-
386-2723 or Detective Borough Queens
North at 718-520-9200.
