Man Left $100k in Wrong Delco Mailbox, Police Seek Identifiers
A bizarre case of mistaken identity has landed a local homeowner in the midst of a high-stakes investigation after a stranger accidentally dropped off an envelope containing a six-figure sum of cash at her Nether Providence Township mailbox.
The discovery was made by the homeowner, who noticed a man leaving something in her mailbox around 11 am on Saturday, December 6th. Hours later, she found an unmarked envelope stuffed with thousands of dollars - an amount she had no reason to expect. Recognizing that the mailbox she received the envelope for may not be the correct address, authorities have launched a quest to identify the sender and retrieve the cash.
According to eyewitness accounts, the male suspect was seen pacing outside her house before making his move, and later described as around 5 feet 8 inches tall with a distinctive black puffer jacket. Authorities are now working closely with residents in the area, suggesting that it's possible the individual responsible might be someone who knew the property previously - perhaps an old patient of the late psychiatrist who used to operate the home.
Police urge anyone with information about this unusual incident or details about the male suspect to come forward and share their findings. Those wishing to provide information can reach out to Nether Providence Township police at (610) 892-2875.
