On August 10, 2014, the Ferguson, Missouri, the local QuikTrip was looted and torched during riots over the shooting death of 18 year-old Michael Brown.

The QuikTrip was completely destroyed during the Ferguson riots.

Ferguson protesters later warned local business owners to rebuild:

“Or it’s gonna be hell to pay”

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

Despite the threats QuikTrip has no plans of rebuilding in Ferguson.

On August 19, 2014, the gas was removed from the tanks at the Ferguson QuikTrip.

This was another sign that the QuikTrip in Ferguson will not rebuild.

Destroyed QuikTrip in Ferguson removed gas from its underground tanks. The company is getting ready to tear down and rebuild at another location.

UPDATE: A QuikTrip official told TGP the company has no plans on rebuilding in Ferguson and that the looted store was barely breaking even.

Rebuild so we can rob you again!

“the looted store was barely breaking even”

Yeah, that’s what happens when you have a high incidence of the “five finger discount”.

This town is dead, they just don’t know it yet. No business in its right mind would rebuild and the existing businesses will be thinking of an exit strategy. The town’s fate is Detroit’s, but it won’t take nearly as long.

Maybe Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton would want to invest in a convenience store in Ferguson.... But you know the shake down is coming....

[Fido969]

A convenience store and a check cashing service.

The community is probably better off without them.

I forget who said it, but someone (here at FR) said that its just a matter of time before Nobama issues another one of his Executive Orders giving millions of dollars to the poor oppressed community of Ferguson so that they may rebuild after this terrible tragedy they have suffered.

I hope they had protection for that truck driver.

Yes, the same thought occurred to me.

The QuickTrip was looted and burned after a mistaken report that it was were Mike Brown did his strong arm robbery (and thus the source of the snitch). I increasingly believe that Brown was involved in a gang, and had been openly "lifting" stuff from Ferguson stores for a while.

I had to check this wasn’t “semi-satire!”

And this Michelle is how you create a food desert.

Congrats to QuikTrip.

Yep, it's a lesson they learned in Watts - you can rebuild, you can re-stock, you can re-open. Then you have to pay for insurance.

Sayonara.

Looks like Ferguson has already been removed from the website.
