Vicious Dog Stops Mail In Lewiston
The Lewiston post office quit delivering mail for a week to a neighborhood where a vicious dog roamed free to chase the mail carrier. Mail service has resumed for one Lewiston neighborhood after a week-long hiatus, the product of a near dog attack on the mailman. In a Lewiston Tribune article, reporter Brad W. Gary writes: “Such mail stoppages are not all that uncommon in Lewiston, but the number of people affected and the length of this stoppage is a first for Lewiston Postmaster Rick Glessner.” About 15 homes were affected. Seems the dog came after the carrier and was pepper-sprayed for its troubles. “In this case,’ continues the story, a corner lot gave the dog sight distance to a number of residences. The incident was also exacerbated when Glessner said a friend of the dog’s owner allegedly confronted the letter carrier over the use of pepper spray.” More here.
Question: Do you have an aggressive or troublesome dog in your neighborhood?
