Some Madera County residents aren’t going to get their mail. The reason: It got turned to ash when the delivery truck caught fire.
A U.S. Postal Service spokeswoman Meiko Patton said a truck caught fire while delivering mail in Madera Ranchos on Wednesday.
While the mail carrier was able to escape uninjured, the mail on board was lost to the flames, said Patton.
Twice in one day? Who here believes in coincidences? LLV’s are about 5 years past junk status. Around here it’s usually 2 at a time being towed in for repairs. As of this posting the safety officials are thinking up a way to blame the carriers.
