Natick Firefighters Save U.S. Mail — From A Fire
The Natick fire department responded to an engulfed U.S. Postal Service truck Thursday morning.
NATICK, MA — Natick firefighters can't do much about the recent questionable activity of U.S. Postal Service leaders — but they can definitely save your mail.
Firefighters responded Thursday morning to a fully engulfed USPS truck near the intersection of Grant and East Central streets in the downtown area.
Luckily that's just three blocks east of the main fire station, and firefighters were able to quickly put out the flames. So quickly that they were able to save most of the mail and packages in the truck, the department reported.
