Brother of Pat Tillman Arrested in Fiery Post Office Crash, Police Say

On Sunday morning, San Jose police arrested Richard Tillman, brother of Pat Tillman, after he crashed his vehicle into the Almaden Valley Station Post Office, causing a fire.
Following the September 11 attacks, Pat Tillman left the Arizona Cardinals to enlist, and was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan in 2004, exemplifying his legacy of service.
Postal inspectors are investigating as an intentional act, Postal Inspector Matthew Norfleet said, while graffiti `Viva La Me` was found on the building’s exterior as investigators note graffiti.
As a result, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service said the fire was extinguished, with no injuries, and the Almaden Valley Station Post Office is now considered a total loss.
Booked on suspicion of arson, Richard Tillman, 44, remains in jail, hearing scheduled for July 23.
