Residents in Denver's Central Park express concerns over mail theft
DENVER — Denver7 is investigating your concerns after we were contacted by families who said they’re dealing with ongoing mail theft in the city’s Central Park neighborhood.
Some residents say the issue has been happening for months: thieves breaking into mailboxes and stealing credit cards, checks, and other important documents.
Neighbors said it didn’t take long to realize something was wrong when checking their mail.
“It’s communal. So we’re like, ‘Hey, did you get your mail? Has it been missing?’ And so that’s how we started noticing,” said Trevor, a Central Park resident who preferred not to share his last name.
Another woman we talked to, Sam, who did not want to share her full name, said she started noticing lighter mail and missing items.
She said the biggest revelation came when her credit card company contacted her about suspicious activity.
“A new credit card I had ordered hadn’t got here, and it was stolen on Christmas Eve, and somebody promptly went on a shopping spree,” she said, “So that’s when I started going back and looking through all my informed mail.”
A spokesperson for the U.S. Postal Service told Denver7 that it immediately replaces the damaged mailboxes. They provided this statement to Denver7 on Wednesday:
“The Postal Service apologizes to customers in the Central Park area for any inconvenience caused as a result of criminal activity… The U.S. Postal Service as well as the impacted customers are all victims in these acts of theft and vandalism. Postal Service maintenance personnel repair or replace damaged boxes and locks as quickly as possible when impacted by these criminal acts.”
However, residents like Sam said the damaged mailboxes are not being repaired or replaced in a timely manner. She’s asking for more to be done.
I just want to make sure to bring awareness to this. With tax season coming up, the potential for identity theft with this situation is extremely high,” she said.
In addition to the statement, USPS provided the following advice for customers, to protect their mail and their letter carriers.
- Don’t let incoming or outgoing mail sit in your mailbox. You can significantly reduce the chance of being victimized by simply removing your mail from your mailbox every day.
- Deposit outgoing mail through a number of secure manners including inside your local Post Office or at your place of business or by handing it to a letter carrier.
- Sign up for Informed Delivery and get daily digest emails that preview your mail and packages scheduled to arrive soon.
- Become involved and engaged in your neighborhood via neighborhood watches and local social media groups to spread awareness and share information.
- Keep an eye out for your letter carrier. If you see something that looks suspicious, or you see someone following your carrier, call 911.

Von Miller has made it abundantly clear that he would like to return to the Denver Broncos and finish his career where it started. Miller has made that fact known at every possible opportunity, including a Von’s Vision charity event on Wednesday.
“I would love to bring back those Super Bowl 50 vibes, love to assist, to be the vice president to Bo Nix, to Courtland Sutton,” Miller said. “I’ve been the guy and also I’ve been the vice president as well. I would love to contribute to us getting back to the glory land, to holding up that trophy.”
Miller went on to note that he has lobbied coach Sean Payton to sign him (Payton coached Miller at a flag football tournament earlier this year).
Unfortunately for Miller, it sounds like there are no plans for a potential reunion with his old club. The Denver Post‘s Luca Evans reported that “as of last week,” there have been no talks between the Broncos and Miller’s representatives about a potential contract.
With a crowded outside linebacker room, Denver seems unlikely to re-sign Miller, but the 37-year-old pass rusher said he will “for sure” play in 2026. After totaling nine sacks with the Washington Commanders last fall, Miller will probably be able to find a home as a rotational pass rusher, but it might not be with the Broncos.

Denver Summit FC delays opening of Centennial Stadium, will play next 2 home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park
Denver Summit FC will play their next two home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
Colorado’s first professional women’s soccer team was hoping to be at their new training facility in Centennial by July, but team says recent rain delayed construction, so they need to push back by two weeks.
That means their July 3 and July 12 matches will be at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.
Summit FC is hopeful to be at their stadium in Centennial for their July 18 game against the Portland Thorns.
Centennial Stadium will ultimately become Summit’s training facility. They’ll play their games there until 2028, when they hope to move into their official home stadium at the Santa Fe Yards at Broadway and I-25. The Santa Fe Yards stadium will have room for more than 14,000 fans.
