Love said the postal worker pulled over upon seeing smoke coming from his truck engine and realized he couldn’t control the fire.
“He decided to remove the packages from the truck,” Love said, adding the boxes were placed several feet behind the truck so they wouldn’t incur damage.
The front of the truck was fully engulfed when the fire department arrived, he said. On its Facebook page, the department proclaimed the mailman “saved Christmas!”
