The Minneapolis-based Target Corporation announced Thursday it will close at least 24 retail locations in the Minneapolis area as violent and destructive riots continue.
Target, among other stores, have been ransacked and burned during riots as police stand by and do nothing.
The company said in a statement, “We are heartbroken by the death of George Floyd and the pain it is causing our community. At this time, we have made the decision to close a number of our stores until further notice. Our focus will remain on our team members’ safety and helping our community heal.”
