Blue Pickup Crashes Into Alturas Post Office

In a surprising incident last week, a blue pickup truck lost control and collided with the side of the Alturas Post Office. Authorities confirmed that alcohol was not a factor in the crash. The driver simply lost control, resulting in the vehicle crashing into the brick wall of the building.

As of Monday, the side door of the post office remains non-operational, causing inconvenience for residents who now have to seek alternative arrangements to collect their mail. The post office staff is working diligently to address the damage and restore full functionality as soon as possible. Residents are advised to stay updated on further announcements regarding the reopening of the side entrance.
