Report those cops to the United States Postal Inspection Service

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service is to support and protect the U.S. Postal Service and its employees, infrastructure, and customers; enforce the laws that defend the nation’s mail system from illegal or dangerous use; and ensure public trust in the mail.
https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/aboutus/mission.aspx


Assaults (18 USC 111 & 1114)
The protection of Postal Service employees is one of our most important responsibilities. Inspectors promptly investigate assaults and threats that occur while postal employees are performing official duties or as a result of their employment.

Destruction, Obstruction and Delay of Mail (18 USC 1700, 1701, 1702 & 1703)
The Postal Inspection Service upholds federal statutes aimed at securing customers' mail, including those related to the desertion, obstruction, delay or destruction of mail. Postal Inspectors demonstrate their resolve by implementing mail security processes to ensure that customers receive their mail intact and free from outside interference.

Theft of Mail (18 USC 1708 & 1709)
Postal Inspectors invest significant resources into the investigation of mail theft by criminals.

The carrier was attempting to deliver a package to that address where the cops grabbed him. The cops made him drop the package, it was kicked around during their manhandling of the carrier, then they picked the package up and carried it off. In addition, it does not look as if they secured the mail truck - how many other pieces of mail could be stolen from it?
