Most of the checks were taken out of post office drop boxes and neighborhood cluster boxes, according to investigators.
Along with the nine property tax checks, the Travis County Sheriff's Office is investigation 76 cases of mailbox destruction. "I think that the best thing that we can do is be our neighbors’ keeper. Right. And if you do see something, call us, report it, and we'll respond to those calls," said Sheriff Sally Hernandez.
"Make sure that you do not deposit it after the final collection time of the day. Every box has the collection time listed on it, and it varies from box to box. So some boxes out on the street, the last pickup time may be 2 or 3 p.m. If it's outside a post office, it may be as late as 8 p.m. But make sure that you know what time that last pickup time is for that box.
