Wawa announced it is closing several stores overnight in suburban Philadelphia because of skyrocketing crime in the city.
The gas station and convenience store chain plans to close overnight at a total of nine stores in Northeast Philadelphia and the Bucks County suburbs, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. The stores will be closed from midnight to 5 a.m. until further notice. The decision to close the stores comes after two stores were robbed earlier this week, and as Wawa reportedly mulls pulling out of Philadelphia altogether because of the crime problem.
