Feces Delivered in Mailbox, Police Say

There was a trick but no treat to what might be presumed to a pre-Halloween prank played recently at a home in Lower Macungie Township.

According to state police at Fogelsville, a 36-year-old resident of Chablis Drive reported that he arrived home to find feces inside his mailbox. No word on whether it was sent special delivery or Parcel Post.
