Albuquerque mailman condemned after using TikTok to humiliate people in International District

An Albuquerque mailman is facing backlash after he allegedly posted videos on TikTok making fun of women and apparent drug addicts. The user, ‘WarzoneChronicles’, deleted the videos on Friday after KOB 4 reached out to the United States Postal Service.

It’s unclear who the mailman is, however, his reflection and vehicle’s reflection can be seen in multiple videos. The videos showed women falling out of their clothes and struggling to walk. The others show people going through some kind of medical episode or sleeping on the sidewalk.

“These actions – if true – are not consistent with and don’t represent the values of the Postal Service organization and will not be tolerated,” said Rod Spurgeon, a USPS spokesperson. “You can be assured that this alleged incident will be fully investigated and that the Postal Service will take whatever action is appropriate,” he added.

KOB 4 reached out to the area’s elected leaders, City Councilor Pat Davis and County Commissioner Adriann Barboa. Neither of them wanted to comment on the videos. Mayor Tim Keller also didn’t provide a reaction when asked.

And it was stopped maybe a stoplight Not sure if it was on Central
The bus driver’s window was open and a man was on the sidewalk who looked like the man in the video with the shopping cart laying down
The bus driver yelled out the window at him “You’re really living the dream aren’t you ?”

I was offended by the situation
nobody on the bus laughed along with him I will tell you that

*BusDriver was not in anyway a reflection of the town as a whole in my limited experiences there
Heartless assholes are everywhere
