LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Postal Inspectors are investigating a series of ‘dock thefts’ at two Henderson post office locations which could affect thousands of customers.
A postal inspector says two locations, one at 404 S. Boulder Highway, and another at 1575 Horizon Ridge Parkway have reported someone is stealing plastic trays of mail, potentially holding between two and three thousand letter-sized pieces of mail from restricted areas.
“It’s quite unusual,” said Liz Davis, postal inspector with the Phoenix Division.
“It’s pretty bold to go into a restricted space, a back dock is typically in a gated area that is restricted to employees only,” added Davis.
Multiple sources say the thefts involved multiple routes and multiple bins which could equal as many as 45,000 pieces of letter-sized mail.
The postal inspector says the thefts happened after the mail was delivered from the central sorting plant, but before letter carriers arrived for their shifts at their local post office locations. More at KTNV

Larry – you have written the wrong people – our site is not the official USPS. Try http://www.usps.com to contact the postal service.
I had a package stolen from the p.o. at 1575 Horizon Ridge Parkway. The manager, employees, and usps absolutely did not give a damn. I called and emailed usps many, many times and got no response. They are criminals.
If you can prove the package was stolen then you need to contact the USPS Postal Inspectors – try here: https://www.uspis.gov/
