News video: Wisconsin letter carrier surprises woman with nude delivery

From WITI TV Milwaukee:

 

The mail carrier who delivers to one building on Silver Spring Dr. in Whitefish Bay exchanged small talk with a woman on his route and offered a favor. She said, “He said that he’d go and get the mail from the P.O. Box for me and that he’ll knock on the door when he’s back with the mail.”

The mail carrier returned and knocked on the door. The woman says, “He burst into the door with the mail, except this time he’s completely nude. No clothes whatsoever. The only thing he said was surprise, and it freaked me out so I screamed and yelled. I yelled at him and told him to leave with my eyes half closed.”

After slamming the door behind the mail carrier, the woman called police. She says, “What scared me even more was that he didn’t leave after he stepped outside the suite. He continued to knock on the door several time. After a while, it got progressively louder and louder.”

The mail carrier left before police arrived, but they did find him and cited him for lewd and lascivious behavior. The United States Postal Service is investigating this, and issued a statement saying in part, “Once the investigation is complete, appropriate action will be taken if needed.”

Relatives of Slain Postal Workers Speak Out

RIPLEY, Tenn. – Grieving relatives of two postal workers shot to death at work last month in a small West Tennessee town are pleading with the public for help in finding whoever killed the women. Family members of postal retail clerk Paula Robinson and rural letter carrier Judy Spray said Thursday they are still struggling to understand why anyone would shoot the two women. Robinson and Spray were found dead inside the Henning post office on the morning of Oct. 18. More than 60 investigators from around the country are working to find the killer or killers. No one has been arrested, and investigators will not discuss whether they have a suspect or motive.

A $50,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to a conviction.
