Postal carrier injured in Belltown hit-and-run

Postal carrier injured in Belltown hit-and-run

A Seattle letter carrier was transported to Harborview Medical Center after his leg got trapped between two vehicles in the 2200 block of 2nd Avenue in Belltown on Tuesday afternoon. The incident happened shortly before 3 p.m. The mail carrier's van was parked in front of a Mazda car and the carrier was standing at the back of his van in between the two vehicles. When the suspect struck the Mazda, it was pushed forward into the back of the postal van and pinned the carrier between the two cars. The suspect then backed up and fled the scene.
