Walmart announced last month that they were also going to close a bunch of other stores across various parts of the country, including stores in Florida, Illinois, Arkansas, and Wisconsin. This is a problem everywhere unfortunately.

Edit: Just part of the "retail apocalypse". Best Buy announced that they're closing stores too, and they don't cite shoplifting as a factor.

They obviously do not. I live in NYC and can confirm there is not, and never has been a Walmart here. This is some fear-mongering shit right up here in this montherfucker.
