Arrest in mysterious mail theft case but no answers, who stole mail? 05:27

FORT WORTH — Fort Worth Police have arrested a suspect in a mysterious case involving mail theft at the main Dallas Post Office.

Now, the arrest is raising a bigger question- Who stole the mail?

In April, the I-Team interviewed Dallas business owner Kim Pettigrew who owns design stores. She contacted the I-Team after she says her business checks were stolen from a drop box outside the main Dallas Post office.

On Friday, February 16, Pettigrew said one of her employees dropped several checks in the outdoor mailboxes in front of the post office off Interstate 30.

Through the weekend, Pettigrew said the checks should have been headed to the bank where she does business in New York.

Instead, by Monday, just three days later,  at least one of the checks appeared to be in Fort Worth, 45 miles away from the post office in West Dallas.

The I-Team confirmed someone tried to cash Pettigrew’s business check at PLS Financial Services on McCart Avenue in Fort Worth.
