A reward of up to $53,000 has been offered for information about the armed robbery of a U.S. Postal Service driver in Ybor City.

The robbery happened May 20 at 2:45 p.m at the Ybor City Post Office, located at 2000 E. 12th Avenue in Tampa.

Investigators say the USPS driver was entering through the west gates of the post office when he was approached by an armed suspect.

The suspect took the driver's wallet, keys and USPS identification badge, investigators said. No mail or other USPS property was stolen.

The suspect fled in a gray four-door vehicle, possibly a Dodge Stratus, with a dent in the driver's side rear-corner panel. The vehicle was driven by another person.

The USPS is offering a reward of up to $50,000, in addition to the $3,000 reward offered by Crime Stoppers of Tampa Bay, for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the suspects.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-873-TIPS (8477), report anonymously online at www.crimestopperstb.com or send a mobile tip using the P3 Tips Mobile application.
