Six U.S. Postal Service carrier uniforms were stolen over the holiday weekend in Rock Hill.
USPS spokesman Harry Spratlin says the six uniforms and one jacket all have postal service logos.
A thief took the uniforms and jacket after breaking into multiple storage units rented by a USPS employee.
The USPS says the theft is a misdemeanor, but using the stolen items to perpetrate a crime would be a federal offense.
“Both postal employees and customers should be aware and call local authorities if someone acts suspiciously,” said Postal Inspection Service Public Information Officer, Justin Crooks in a written statement. “Anyone who is suspicious of a Postal employee should ask for a U. S. Postal Service picture ID. “
