DETROIT (AP) - A 40-year-old woman has been arrested in connection with the carjacking of a U.S. Postal Service van in Detroit.

Sadie Lakisha Hawkins has been charged with carjacking, unarmed robbery, receiving and concealing stolen property and unlawful driving away of an automobile, according to the Wayne County prosecutor’s office.

Hawkins was expected to be arraigned Friday.



A postal worker was pulled from the van Wednesday evening on the city’s westside and the vehicle was taken. Detroit police arrested Hawkins on Thursday.

Court records did not list an attorney for Hawkins.
