OKC Man says his mail hasn't been delivered in years
An Oklahoma City man living in Southeast Oklahoma City says his mail has not been delivered in two years.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (KFOR) — An Oklahoma City man living in Southeast Oklahoma City says his mail has not been delivered in two years.
Ronald Corbit said no deliveries have been made to him or anyone else that lives on C Street in OKC.
"Everybody should have the right to get the mail," said Corbit. "It's not just me that is suffering here."
Corbit said he received a letter from the United States Postal Service notifying him that his mail will no longer be delivered.
"I just feel really like they're singling us out in a way," said Corbit.
He said he was told he would have to move his mailbox to 159th Street if he wanted his mail delivered, so he did, but yet the mail still doesn't come.
"They didn't tell me where. They just said be on 159th Street," said Corbit. "Everyday I do see and hear the mailman pass and it is a little frustrating because I can see his vehicle and I can hear it."
Corbit has lived in his home for a decade and is a disabled veteran. He said not receiving mail is taking a toll on him.
"It's been pretty hard, just because I can't get my medicine and I'm in treatment right now for PTSD," said Corbit.
News 4 reached out to USPS and received a statement in response to Corbit's claims, "Residents in the area of C Street were asked to move their mailboxes to the main road located closest to their address, approximately two years ago, due to safety concerns with the condition of the street"
