Earlier this month, CBS correspondent Joe Holden reported that dozens of juveniles were ransacking convenience stores across Center City, Philadelphia.
““Closed early due to police activity” Philadelphia Police tell me dozens of juveniles were ransacking convenience stores across Center City (nothing to do with Made in America, according to police sources). They hit a number of Wawa locations — and police tell me most of their Center City locations have since shut down. I checked on two stores — they were closed. Police say an unknown number of juveniles were taken into custody,” Holden reported.
