I knew the metrorail station would eventually bring in trouble makers.
The shooter drove.
Most of the shoplifters are coming in from dc. The posts supporting the early closings are sad and indicative of the lazy/entitled culture now prevalent in the US. Lack of integrity and work ethic. I understand OPs frustration. Customer service, in general, is gone. There are loads of people begging for cash on street corners where I live next to stores that are desperate for employees. It’s very concerning.
Most are teenagers shoplifting for fun. Suburban teenagers.

*The manager had to leave for one reason or another and none of the minors left behind are trained in store closing procedures
*They did not have enough staff to stay open because someone is out sick
*They never get traffic after 8:00 so the district manager approved closing early
*Some other eventuality that caused an early closing.
I walked past Morphe in the middle of a Saturday one weekend and it was closed. Things happen, and unless it's a pattern (and one that disrupts your life in some way), I'd let it go.
