Mail Heist Crew Pleads Guilty in LA | Venice Beach News

In Los Angeles County, a 46-year-old man named Vegen Hartoonian pleaded guilty to being part of a year-long scheme that stole 30 USPS trucks and mail from over 230 victims—using rental cars to tail carriers, snatch trucks, and ditch them. He also admitted to possessing 100 stolen credit and debit cards, adding identity theft to the crime. Facing up to seven years, including two mandatory for identity theft, Hartoonian joins three others already convicted; one more, Mark Quitugua, is still on trial. This brazen operation highlights how even the postal system is vulnerable—and justice is ensuring these criminals pay the price.
