Gunman holds woman at gunpoint in Brooklyn post office, caught after moped wreck: sources | amNewYork
Briefly

On June 30, a gunman attempted to rob a Brooklyn post office but fled empty-handed after firing shots and holding a customer at gunpoint. The incident occurred at a post office in Midwood, where the suspect threatened a woman while postal employees evacuated. Police reported that the man unsuccessfully searched a cash register and left on a moped, later trying to rob a check-cashing business. He crashed the moped, leading to his arrest, and a firearm was recovered. The investigation continues with collaboration from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
During the Monday incident at a Midwood post office, a gunman held a customer at gunpoint, fired shots, but fled empty-handed after failing to steal anything.
Despite the tense situation at the post office, where the suspect fired multiple shots and threatened a customer, no one was injured during the robbery attempt.
