A Rite Aid store in the middle of Woodland Hills is closing its doors permanently over an increase in safety concerns.
According to LAPD’s crime mapping information, 107 incidents were reported nearby in just the last six months ranging from vehicle thefts to burglary, robbery and assaults.
“As bad as the economy is right now, employees need jobs, everything is going up. It’s bad,” Martir said. Rite aid says it’s transferring prescriptions and employees to other stores. For some customers, they say the signs of these times are daunting. “People are already needing jobs from the covid closures and things like this for over two years now and now. How many jobs are we losing because businesses are closing down because you can go in and steal $900 worth of stuff and not be punished?” Jessica Morelli, a Rite Aid customer, said.
