DETROIT, Mich. -- A fence surrounding a Walgreens store on Detroit's east side has been stolen.


Employees at the store on Jefferson Avenue at Mt. Elliott arrived one day to find that a section of the aluminum fencing was missing. The next day, the entire fence had been popped out of the brackets, Local 4 reported.



"We already don't have a Kmart. We don't have a Meijer. We don't have a Wal-Mart. We don't have a Target in the city, and we're up here destroying the new Walgreens," said Regina Gibson, a customer at the store.

The store has surveillance cameras but it was not known if the incident was captured on tape.

Management would not comment to Local 4, but they've posted signs around the store offering a reward for the return of the fence.
