A sticky-fingered mob of shoplifting teens has almost entirely cleaned out a Washington, DC-area CVS outlet -- leaving the retailer's shelves almost bare.
Startling images from inside the chain pharmacy in DC's Columbia Heights neighborhood show row after row of empty shelves, thanks to about 45 youngsters who have been targeting the store, Fox affiliate WTTG-TV reported.
"Youngsters." Whatever euphemisms we can think of to make hardened thieves appear to be innocent scamps.
"When you walk into this CVS, you'd think the store is closing because there's barely anything on the shelves," WTTG reporter Sierra Fox said.
Spoiler:is closing. CVS will close 900 locations by the end of 2024.
What are the odds that the Columbia Heights, DC store will remain open?
Or that any stores in DC will remain open?

The further west and south the better.
When there are no stores they'll move on to residences or vehicles.
Amazing.... and mysterious....
LOL
Oh, me too. And some comic books.
Just the feral children of Obeyme up to their usual antics.
So DC is “allowing” this action due to inaction. so is now the DC mayor has become The tzar for looting and robbing?
That tells a lot.
DC mayor Muriel Bowser is worse than Lori Lightfoot and Eric Adams combined. I know that is hard to comprehend but is nonetheless true.

Now .. . THAT is GREAT writing !!!
Lol
likely a vending machine with bullet proof glass and a fast roll down steel door will drop down if someone tries to move it or break the glass Protecting the merchandise.
Not fool proof Protection systems but a means to slow down the thief and be up and running once the owner resets the machine.

Just today I was reading a scare article about “pharmacy deserts” and how unfair it was to people of color that they did not have a pharmacy nearby to be about to get prescriptions or cold medicine or vaccines. Although to be fair, the article did note that these places were closing in many cases because of the crime.
The article is almost beyond belief. They attack right wing media for writing about it because the propaganda media would just never mention it.
I don’t care where it is located, any community that has “Heights” attached, is a location one should avoid.
when the mobs run out of stores to loot, they’re coming to YOUR house. “elections have consequences and then everyone suffers the consequences”. when they come to your house, break in your door and you cannot be armed because of the politicians and can’t call law enforcement because of the politicians...remember to thank a democrat.
‘Yutes’
No, the “yutes” will throw the vending machine over and break it open. It would have to be heavily armored and bolted to the floor really well.
Strange how Hardware stores are somehow spared all flash mob looting…
