Exploring a dumping site for stolen mail in Houston

Mail theft is nothing new in Houston, but discarded letters recently found along a west Harris County trail show just how bold thieves have become. Melinda Field said she first noticed piles of discarded mail on June 23 while running in the Addicks area. “It started June 23rd. I first noticed I was running on the trail a lot and I found discarded mail,” Field said. “It’s been about four times I’ve come out here and found mail and just thrown everywhere.”
