Local police investigated a small number of reports of non-life-sustaining businesses still operating after Gov. Tom Wolf ordered enforcement of their closures starting at 8 a.m. Monday to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
Wolf’s order prohibits the physical operations of businesses that the state deems as nonessential to remain open, such as car dealerships and dry cleaners. Some businesses successfully sought waivers to the order after the state was deluged with thousands of requests.
Businesses that can remain open include grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, beer distributors, auto parts stores, bakeries and restaurants offering takeout and delivery.
