MAN SWIPES BOTTLES FROM FRANKLY WINES
A man casually shopped for bottles at Frankly Wines then walked out the door, heading north on West Broadway yesterday evening. An employee followed him out and got two of the three bottles back, which, as owner Liz Nicholson said on Instagram, was above and beyond. Her cameras caught it all. From Liz: “If anyone knows who this guy is, would love that info for our friends at the 1st precinct. And, I suppose to my fellow retailers: watch out for this guy!”
