Postal managers, who need their depot to meet quotas, or to get rid of undelivered mail, or disgruntled employees, it seems more likely than what's implied (trump)

Similar issues have happened before with usps (falsifying deliveries to meet quotas)

Also, looks like this mail was incoming bulk business mail (flyers, samples, etc)

US Postal Service employees weren't involved in the dumping of bags, Omar Gonzalez, the Western Regional Coordinator for the American Postal Workers Union, told CNN.

Gonzalez said the person seen on surveillance video tossing the bags of mail out of a Budget rental truck was a contractor and after watching the surveillance tape, Gonzalez said the bags appeared to be bulk shipment mail.

For companies that ship in bulk, Gonzalez said they are given plastic bags bearing a USPS logo to bring to the bulk shipping department at the dock.

It was unclear if the bags were being delivered to or departing from the Glendale post office but if it was incoming mail, the bags are supposed to be placed into USPS trucks and taken to a processing center, Gonzalez said.

"If it's outgoing, we don't know how it got into the Budget truck," Gonzalez said.

Gonzalez said the Postal Inspectors Office and local police are both investigating. CNN requests for comment from Glendale Police and the USPS have not been returned.
