Officers went to the 6700 block of W. 66th Street about 3:30 p.m. after getting a call about an armed robbery. The postal worker was not hurt, Edina police said in a news release.
Investigators believe the postal worker was targeted by a suspect who exited the passenger side of a newer, midsize dark SUV and showed a gun. Police did not say what, if anything, was taken.
The suspect with the gun was described as a Black man with dreadlocks in his mid-20s, about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing between 170 and 200 pounds. He was wearing a black, hooded sweatshirt at the time of the incident, police said.
Police are asking those who live in the residential area to share any camera footage showing dark SUVs in the area and are looking to speak to anybody who may have witnessed the robbery.
