An investigation into mail theft has begun in Swift Current.

Swift Current City RCMP say yesterday it was brought to their attention that mailboxes have been compromised between October 1 and yesterday.

There's no information regarding who might be responsible, who's been affected, what items were taken, how many people were affected, or of the method used to gain access to mailboxes.

But police say they're working in conjunction with Canada Post on the matter.

City RCMP ask to be contacted by anyone that might have been a victim of mail theft. They also say residents unsure if their mail has been stolen should contact their service providers that send mail to ensure their accounts are up to date and no unauthorized activity occured.

Police also say residents concerned with security of their mail or mailboxes should get ahold of Canada Post.

Canada Post has no comment on the matter, as it is under investigation.
