Hamburg police on Tuesday released more details about Friday’s knifepoint robbery of a postal carrier on McKinley Parkway.
The robbery happened at about 11:05 a.m. at 6145 McKinley, just north of Newton Road.
The suspect was described as a 6-foot-tall man wearing a dark blue tracksuit with a white shirt wrapped around his head, police said.
Before the robbery, the suspect was seen on foot less than a quarter-mile away, in the area of East Prospect Avenue and Janice Place.
Investigators say the robber fled back to that area afterward.
Police previously said the robber took a key that accesses mailboxes and drop points in the Hamburg area.
