WLS AM 890 just reporting that the Bloomingdale, IL K-Mart is being evacuated with a large police presence.

"the Las Vegas concealed carrying in a CostCo incident from several years ago."

Turns out that Rustler Reid's buddy (Clark County, Nev.) Sheriff Gillespie was/is in charge of the LVPD.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Why bother? Has been years since I’ve seen a Kmart that would NEED to be evacuated.

[DocJhn]

Clean up on Isle 5!

[no-to-illegals]

Any word of reason for evacuation?

[Brasky]

Gotcha. Thanks

[RandallFlagg]

Yep. I remember.

[The Cajun]

Was it because of a terrible smell, that's kind of normal ya know.

[Constitution Day]

Someone probably shipped their pants.

[fulltlt]

WLS stated the police told them it was a bomb threat. They searched the place and found nothing.

evac called off?

[Ezekiel]

I'm surprised that there were any customers to evacuate! Does anyone even shop at K-Mart any more?

Perhaps this is a marketing strategy to make it appear as though people actually shop there.

The way the media hypes every thing up, a half dozen sauntering employees will become thousands of K-Mart shoppers, fleeing for their lives!!!

[GeronL]

Has it ever happened at an H-Mart?

[Ezekiel]

How about the ABC stores? Well we do know that “strange things are afoot at the Circle K.”

[GeronL]

Circle K is very suspicious at that

[Nik Naym]

“There were rumors that the store was being flooded in a tidal wave of second-rate junk and trashy merchandise.”

That wasn’t a rumor.

[Delta Dawn]

The blue light, stopped flashing...

[no-to-illegals]

Will assume all is okay since have found nothing else but references back to FR.

K-Mart is being evacuated

Judging from the last few times I stopped in a K-Mart, how could you tell?

[vetvetdoug]

Monday afternoon our local Wal Mart was in a sort of lockdown. A swarm of bees decided to make a grocery cart in the main aisle their home. Really made grocery shopping a bit difficult for a little while.
