6/8/2018 MEMPHIS, Tenn. — U.S. Postal inspectors say they need your help tracking down a thief who was caught on camera stealing hundreds of pieces of mail.

All of this unfolded at the Stonebridge Crossing apartments off Morning Ridge Road in Cordova.

Inspectors said the reason cameras were put up around the mailboxes in the first place was because of mail theft.

Video shows the man taking the mail around 3 Monday afternoon.

Inspectors say he hit the parked postal vehicle not once but twice, in a matter or minutes, and made off with more than 400 pieces of mail, including packages.

“It’s pretty bold to be doing this in broad daylight, especially when the carrier is just around the corner delivering mail,” said U.S. Postal Inspector Branden Guffey.
