Woman arrested in connection with battery of postal worker
Evanston, Il – A 66-year-old woman was arrested in connection with the battery of a U.S. postal service worker Tuesday morning in downtown Evanston, police said.
The incident occurred Feb. 12 at 6 p.m. in the 800 block of Main Street, Evanston police Cmdr. Joseph Dugan said. The postal worker, 42, was confronted by the 66-year-old woman when she brought a package to her home, Dugan added. The woman said the mail was late and then pushed the post office employee with enough force to almost knock her to the ground, Dugan said.
Detectives followed up on the case after the postal service worker identified the 66-year-old woman, police said. She was arrested at the Evanston Police Department station, 1454 Elmwood Ave., on Tuesday morning and charged with misdemeanor battery.
The woman is scheduled to appear in court March 27.
