    White Settlement police are asking for the public’s help to identify two suspects who tried to steal an ATM from a convenience story early Wednesday.

    Officers responded to a 7-Eleven in the 2600 block of Cherry Lane about 4 a.m. after a 911 caller reported that someone had broken a window to steal an ATM that was located in the back of the store, White Settlement police said in a news release.

    When officers arrived they saw extensive damage to the front doors and windows of the store, with “debris, shelving and merchandise” scattered throughout the store and into the parking lot, police said.

    Investigators determined that two men drove to the store in a black SUV that had been stolen in Dallas. The suspects came out of the SUV wearing dark-colored clothing, had their faces covered and wore gloves, police said.

    Surveillance video shows a masked suspect entering the store attaching a metal cable to an ATM before pulling it out with the SUV.

    One man smashed the front door with a metal object, then dragged the cable through the store and secured it to the machine. As the ATM is pulled toward the exit, store shelves collapse and merchandise spills across the floor, the video shows.

    The driver attempts twice before the ATM is fully pulled out of the store, police said.

    The suspects drove west on the Interstate 30 service road, where the ATM became dislodged and ended up in a culvert near an auto dealership. Officers recovered the ATM, including the safe, police said.

    Officers determined the SUV drove off to the 2700 block of Shenandoah in Fort Worth, where it was abandoned, about a half-mile from the convenience store, police said.

    The store owner told police that similar crimes have occurred at other businesses he owns across the Dallas-Fort Worth area, the release stated.

    The Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office processed the vehicle for forensic examination, police said.

    Anyone with information is asked to contact WSPD Detective Geovanny Ramirez at 817-246-7070, ext. 420. Anonymous tips can be made at 817-469-TIPS.

    The store clerk and witness were not injured. The investigation is ongoing, police said.

  • Walmart developer seeks Lake Norman town’s approval for a nearby restaurant

    [ad_1]

    The developer of a Walmart Neighborhood Market in rapidly growing east Mooresville wants to add a restaurant and a gas station/convenience store nearby.

    Iredell Avenue Residential Development LLC will seek a rezoning from the Mooresville Board of Commissioners on Monday for a Wendy’s and a 7-Eleven in its Harris Crossing development on Coddle Creek Highway (N.C. 3) at Harris Crossing Boulevard, Mooresville Planning & Community Development documents show.

    At a neighborhood meeting held by the developer in May, residents raised concerns about traffic, safety, noise and potential pollution, according to the town documents.

    The developer said existing trees, a proposed berm and an eight-foot-tall wall with landscaping on both sides would create sound and visual barriers along the southern end of the nearly five-acre property.

    A proposed 50-foot-wide buffer of trees and other vegetation “would deter the possibilities of vagrants trying to walk through and get to the existing backyards of the adjacent homes along the east side of the property,” according to town planning documents.

    On May 27, the Mooresville Planning Board sided with residents in recommending the rezoning be denied by the town board.

    The Mooresville Board of Commissioners will consider the rezoning at 6 p.m. Monday at Town Hall, 413 N. Main St.

  • ‘Not them trying to gaslight you’: Woman fills 2 Jack o’ Lantern buckets for 7-Eleven ‘bring your own cup’ day. Then she tries to checkout

    [ad_1]

    A woman brings two trick-or-treating buckets to 7-Eleven, thinking the convenience chain participates in “bring your own cup day.” But the workers tell her she’s mistaken when she takes out her $4 at the checkout.

    In a video with over 6.6 million views, TikTok Aiyanna (@aiyannace) yells, “Hello, everyone! Happy holiday!” as she enters the convenience store.

    First, she places one Jack-o’-Lantern bucket underneath the piña colada slushie flavor. She fills it up until the machine is nearly empty. Then, she places the second bucket underneath the blue raspberry flavor and fills it to the brim.

    However, she asks the cashier why he looks “confused” as she places the buckets on the register.

    Was 7-Eleven participating in ‘bring your own cup’ day?

    In a Sept. 4 press release, 7-Eleven announces that its next bring your own cup day is Sept. 13. Customers can bring any container of any size and fill it up with a Slurpee for $1.99. The convenience chain gives “fishbowls, flower vases, pitchers, and popcorn buckets” as examples of acceptable containers.

    However, Aiyanna may have mixed up her dates, arriving at the store with her buckets on Sept. 11. The workers shake their heads as they tell Aiyanna that the promotion isn’t valid.

    “You gonna make me put my slushie back?” she asks, handing the cashier $4 for the two mega slushies.

    One worker insists that bring your own cup day has “never been done.” Some franchises may not participate in the promotion.

    The clip cuts, and she shows herself giving the giant slushies to two men outside of 7-Eleven. She reenters the store to buy the other people slushies—albeit normal-sized ones—too.

    She asks the worker, “Does this qualify for your program?” as she hands him the Big Gulp-sized slushies.

    How did viewers react to her viral mistake?

    In the comments, viewers joke about Aiyanna’s go-with-the-flow attitude despite mixing up the dates of the bring your own cup promotion.

    “My girl aint let her vibe get killed. she say ‘you get a slushy! YOU get a slushy! EVERYBODY gets a slushy,”” a commenter writes.

    “I actually never laughed so hard in my entire life,” another says.

    “Everytime I see your videos it’s just a perfect representation of exercising free will and I respect that,” a third adds.

    Others point out that the 7-Eleven workers watched her fill the buckets with slushie and didn’t say anything before she reached checkout.

    “It’s the fact they gonna tell you it’s not ‘bring your own cup day’ but not act like they did watch you fil up two buckets the whole time,” one says.

    “The employees watching you fill up a Halloween bucket with slushie,” another writes.

    “I mean they literally could’ve stopped you at ANY point prior to checkout,” a third remarks.

  • 7-Eleven to pay $1.2 million to settle allegations of selling illegal vapes near D.C. schools – WTOP News

    [ad_1]

    7-Eleven has agreed to pay $1.2 million to resolve claims the convenience store violated the D.C. ban on the sale of vape devices and e-cigarettes within a quarter-mile of schools.

    7-Eleven has agreed to pay $1.2 million to resolve allegations that the convenience store giant violated the District’s ban on the sale of vaping devices and e-cigarettes within a quarter-mile of middle and high schools, according to Attorney General Brian Schwalb.

    In a news release, the attorney general’s office said that since the District’s ban went into effect in October 2022, a total of 16 7-Eleven stores near schools sold thousands of electronic smoking devices.

    Electronic smoking devices include vaping devices, e-cigarettes and other instruments that generate vapor or aerosol that can be inhaled by the user.

    In addition to paying a monetary penalty, the chain must now permanently stop all sales and marketing of the devices at its stores near D.C. schools as part of a settlement. 7-Eleven is also required to train staff and monitor franchise stores to ensure compliance with D.C. law.

    “Selling vapes and e-cigarettes near schools is illegal because, particularly for young people, these nicotine products are addictive and unhealthy,” Schwalb said.

    According to Schwalb’s office, in August 2022, before the ban went into effect, 7-Eleven notified 16 stores — including 10 stores owned by the chair and six franchises — of the upcoming ban.

    “OAG’s investigation revealed that despite this direct notification, all sixteen stores near D.C. middle and high schools continued to sell electronic smoking devices after the ban took effect.”

    Now, as part of the agreement, if a franchise store receives four notices of violations within a two-year period, 7-Eleven must terminate its franchise agreement with the store and provide notice of the termination to Office of the Attorney General.

    “7-Eleven’s illegal sales threatened to reverse the progress we’ve made reducing tobacco use amongst youth,” Schwalb said. “Protecting the safety of our community is our top priority at the Office of the Attorney General, and that includes enforcing local laws designed to protect the health of our children.” 

    WTOP is seeking comment from 7-Eleven about the settlement.
