DAYTON — A local United States Postal Service mail carrier stole and used gift cards and had a stack of undelivered mail in his vehicle, a federal criminal complaint alleges.

Terrence Young, 37, is scheduled for an arraignment and plea hearing June 2 in Dayton’s U.S. District Court, according to court documents filed March 4 but only unsealed this week.

A bill of information indicates Young is accused of one count of delay or destruction of mail, which is punishable by a maximum of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Messages seeking comment from Young and his federal public defender were not returned.

Young’s employment with the United States Postal Service ended in March, according to Special Agent Scott Balfour of the postal service’s Office of the Inspector General, what he called the postal service’s “internal affairs.”
