It didn’t take long for barriers to materialize at Bartell Drugs following the appearance of anonymous fliers around the Village asking store management to do something to protect employees and shoppers.
According to the flier, cars have crashed through the front of the building five times in the last 20 years. In a story reported earlier this month by Magnolia Voice, a spokesperson for the store said “Bartell’s is going to install barriers… by the end of this month.”
“Bravo for Bartells!” exclaims “Priscilla,” the Magnolia Voice commenter who takes credit for the flier campaign.
