Post office in Media, Pennsylvania, damaged after box truck crash
MEDIA, Pa. (CBS) — A post office in Media, Pennsylvania, was damaged after a box truck crashed into it Thursday morning.
The truck went through a wall of windows and there was broken glass at the scene.
Media police said that around 6 a.m. they received at least two 911 calls about the crash. The post office is on the corner of Baltimore Avenue and Monroe Street in Media.
Nobody was in the lobby at the time of the crash, and the driver of the truck was not hurt.
The truck has since been towed from the scene.
A USPS spokesperson told CBS News Philadelphia the post office will be closed while repairs are made. Customers are asked to go to the Springfield Post Office at 1138 Baltimore Pike for retail services.
“The Postal Service thanks our customers for their understanding and support. All our employees are safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with the driver,” the spokesperson said in an email.
