The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is offering a reward in the search for three suspects who robbed a letter carrier in Los Angeles last week.
Video released of the March 20 incident shows two suspects in black hoodies getting out of a newer model white Honda 4-door sedan and running up to a letter carrier in the Valley Village neighborhood who appeared to be taking packages out of a mail van.
The suspects can be seen grabbing something from the letter carrier and then running back to the car where a third suspect was waiting to drive them away.
The Inspection Service said the same suspects had already attempted to rob two other letter carriers.
“The robbery and attempted robberies happened in Sherman Oaks, Tarzana, and
Valley Village,” the Inspection Service stated in a news release.
Two of the suspects were described as young Hispanic males who were wearing face masks. The third suspect was just described as a Hispanic male who was also wearing a face mask.
The Inspection Service issued the following warning: “TAKE NO ACTION TO APPREHEND THIS PERSON YOURSELF.”
A reward of up to $150,000 is being offered for the information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects.
