In March, a mail carrier was making his rounds hear 38th and Ruby in Milwaukee. That is when prosecutors say two men pulled guns on him and stole a special key to get into mailboxes. More than a month later…
“Defendant is part of a criminal gang that robs mail carriers at gunpoint,” Arthur Thexton, Milwaukee County Assistant District Attorney.
“Mail is stolen, checks are taken out and checks are washed,” said Brittany Kachingwe, assistant district attorney.
Abdi Abdi and Darrion Allison made their first court appearances on Tuesday, May 2. They are charged with armed robbery and stealing mail along with another man.
“Mr. Abu has been named as the ringleader of the crew that has been going around and robbing mailmen, as well as stealing the mail and washing the checks,” Kachingwe said.
Prosecutors point to 20-year-old Huria Abu as the so-called “Don” of the group of five. It is an investigation that goes back to at least October.
With armed robberies or mail thefts in Milwaukee, they ramped up beginning in February – three in March, including in Butler, and two in April.
