Vandalism at Holton Post Office

Recent vandalism at the Holton Post Office has caused those receiving mail some grief. The lobby is no longer open 24 hours a day for people to get into their PO Boxes after a night of vandalism left the lobby in pretty bad shape. There were places in the walls, broken items strewn about, with even the ink pens broken and ink smeared on the floor. Versailles Postmaster JW Chambers said, “It’s a shame that a few people have caused this damage to the building and that people are not being able to access their boxes as they should. The matter is being investigated by the post office and the Indiana State Police.” If you have any information concerning who might have done this, please contact the ISP at 812-689-5000.
