ReplyDeleteThis Giant is a magnet for crime!
ReplyDeleteThis is crazy - that PNC bank is completely out in the open right next to the Giant check out lanes. Wheaton is generally a safe place, but the fact that a robber can just walk into a grocery store is really concerning. I hope that young man is caught and suffers some major consequences.
