Post Office in Ben Franklin’s House May Close

The post office in Philadelphia’s historic Old City neighborhood is the only one in the country that doesn’t fly a U.S. flag. That’s because there wasn’t one in 1775, when Franklin founded what has evolved into today’s Postal Service.

I believe it is important to share this information. I don’t know the women personally involved but I think it is terrible what has happened to them. Going out to a nightclub, walking down the street, etc. — none of this should ever make us feel unsafe.

• People are working with the proper authorities to deal with this individual. If you have information to share, use the Philadelphia Police Department’s “tips” hotline (215-686-8477).
• The venue where the assault took place has yet to release a public statement, and has been removing posts to their Facebook wall that reference the incident.

What you can do

• Flyers are being distributed at events in town, and can be found on telephone poles, etc. You can download a PDF of the poster here.
