That photo is from early this morning, after police responded to a burglary at Alki Mail and Dispatch (4701 SW Admiral Way). Proprietor Bree sent the report, photo, and videos, and a request for customers who might have been affected: I’m very sad to report that we were the victims of a break-in at 5:12 am this morning.
