I asked this question about a year ago and didn't get much of a response so trying again. It seems that crime that does not involve shoplifting is on the increast in this Local 1996 are. Recently we had $12,000 worth of outdoor furniture and grills stolen from two Decatur GA stores. Plus a few incidents of stolen cars. What is happening in your area?

Drug use and sales. The restrooms are a hotspot for sales, smoking, and shooting up. Customers even mess with the lighting (stealing, unscrewing, or smashing bulbs) to make it more comfortable. We are finding needles in the parking lot.
Robbery. The service desk has been robbed twice this year. Those are the first two times it's been robbed, ever. The fuel center has been robbed once.

Decatur GA and Atlanta metro has not been the same since Sherman burned it.
We have had fist fights in the parking lot on senior day. Panhandlers, Drug addicts. A guy exposed himself to a 12 year old girl once there.
Some crazy guy came in and grabbed a few boxes of the 200 count matches and dumped them into all the toilets both in the mens and womens restrooms.
Someone claiming to be a service technician tried to get the front desk floor supervisor to send $75,000 as a "test" on the Western Union machine
At the fuel center I have had 3 people try to fight me and 1 Nigerian scam gang (with a U Haul van with a busted out window) trying to buy cartons of cigarettes with a stolen card.
A couple of guys from out of state were casing out the fuel center but were scared away.
Get short change artists all the time.
Woman was stealing stuff to make Meth with and she was caught by Loss Prevention and she punched the LP officer
This kid that worked in grocery was mad about having to stock the milk cooler so he deficiated on a pallet where the dairy backstock is stored.
Tweaker ran into the store (closed) at 3am out of his mind claiming the government sent ninjas after him.
Panhandlers, which is hilarious when I get to warn them / ask them to leave, because some don't think that if we warn you first, then it doesn't count. Management don't play after an employee warning, they just go straight to kicking them off and not letting them get anywhere with their response. Wasn't so fun when a customer nearly threatened me after i apparently spooked him for announcing i was coming to get his cart for him (I don't like sneaking on people on the lot) and made a move like he had a concealed weapon he was reaching for, yea immediately backed off, and escalated to LP / MOD who called the cops. Cops actually were very close by so they had a discussion with the customer and sternly warned them if they try stupid stuff like that again, they might find someone who is not an employee next time they try that and they could easily wind up dead.
