JANESVILLE (WKOW) -- A post office in Janesville is temporarily shut

down after a worker became ill.

The branch on Main Street, located in Oak Towne Mall, closed

yesterday after the postmaster says one of the workers came down

with a strange cough.

That building had mold damage after the flooding this summer, mostly

in the drywall.

The building's owner says most of that damage has been cleaned out,

but also says there was some concern of mold in the air. So a

certified state inspector will return Thursday to test the air

If the tests come back clean, the building's owner says the post

office could reopen as early as next week.

The owner also says none of the other businesses in the building

have been affected.
