Man accused of stealing mail from Chilliwack community mailboxes faces charges

CHILLIWACK, B.C. – Theft of mail from four community mailboxes in Chilliwack, B.C., has led to the arrest of a 33-year-old man.

RCMP say Jeffery Kizmann is facing several charges and allegedly breached probation.

He remains in custody and is expected to make a court appearance later this month.

Police say they began investigating with Canada Post after mail was stolen from the boxes in one neighbourhood.

Mounties are asking residents to collect their mail daily and contact Canada Post to hold delivery if they will be away.

The agency says people should file a report with its security team if a community mailbox door has been left open and mail is exposed.
