Two mail carriers were robbed at gunpoint Monday in Denver’s Montbello neighborhood, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service is investigating.
Both robberies occurred between 4:45 and 5:15 p.m., according to USPIS team leader Jeffrey Korman. The first was on the 4600 block of Eureka Court and the second at Bolling Drive and Duluth Court. A home security system videoed at least three suspects leaving the area in a white Hyundai Sonata. As of Tuesday afternoon , the USPIS is investigating several leads and will not disclose what the suspects stole.
