GRAPEVINE, Texas, Dec. 10 (UPI) -- A mailman in Texas refused to let two trashcans disrupt his deliveries, and bulldozed them with his truck, the Fort Worth (Texas) Star-Telegram reported.

The mail carrier was making his daily rounds in Grapevine, which is near Fort Worth. When he came upon a house with trashcans placed illegally out front, he drove into them and pushed them down the street.

A father and son inside the house raced outside and chased the mail truck, trying to get the driver to stop. The driver eventually abandoned the trashcans, the newspaper said.
