Monday in southwest suburban Orland Park, a post office mailbox was broken into and some contents were stolen.
The theft occurred around 6 a.m. at the United States Postal Office in 9500 W. 144th Place, according to Orland police.
According to police, a “sawzall” tool was used to cut open the mailbox, and some of the contents were stolen.
If anyone used the mailbox after 5 p.m. on Saturday and before 2 a.m. on Monday, police advised them to check their financial accounts for possible fraudulent activity.
Anyone who notices any suspicious activity is encouraged to contact the USPS and file a report at uspis.gov/report.
The US Postal Inspection Service is still looking into the matter.
