Letter carriers use “arrow keys” to get quick access to secure buildings and mailboxes while making their rounds. But the keys are also in the high question from thieves who steal e -mail to feed highly organized identity theft and checkescumping activities.
CPD described the suspects as black men who stood 5’8 “or 5’9” long. They wore dark clothing and face masks. Tips can be shared by calling the police on 312-747-8380 or going to CPDTIP.com. Consult incident #p25-1-022.
