Postal service spokesperson Joe Aguilar said mail delivery in that area will resume Thursday morning. The police department has agreed to have an officer escort the mail carrier through the route.
Aguilar said that because of the level of crime and issues in the past, the postal service had decided to install a cluster of mailboxes near 151st, 152nd and Marshfield to minimize the time the mail carrier spends delivering mail on that route. The box will be installed by early next week.
