Gone postal

A Brooklyn postal worker recently headed for the hills with a trunk full of (allegedly) stolen mail and was caught red-handed, the New York Post reports.

Letter carrier Peter Ramsdal, 26, who works out of the Dyker Heights Post Office, had stashed the bags of mail in his 2008 Mazda during a trip to the Catskills on April 21.

His hoard was discovered when he was pulled over for driving with a suspended registration, cops said.

As Catskills officers impounded his car, they found three US Postal Service mailbags with 537 pieces of mail.

The hero of the day: Lt. Gregory Sager of the "Catskills Police Department" -- uh, that would be "Catskill," guys. Hard to believe, but we've got more than one police department up here.
