I've been able too find two things:
- A couple of UPS drivers were robbed recently. Their uniforms were taken, and police are concerned that they may be used in crime.
- Last December, a man in a UPS uniform who had a gun gained entrance intoto a home and left the resident with fractured skull.
The stories illustrate the lengths to which some persons will go to perpetrate crime.
One would
think that it would be okay to go to the door to greet a man in a UPS uniform. But if he man is criminal and if he is armed, one could end up in a very bad situation.
We do not go to the door, They knock, leave the package, and depart. If there is something reading a signature, they notify us by email first.
And then there are water company uniforms, salespersons....
