Target, grappling with escalating theft and “organized retail cri me,” is set to close nine outIets across four states. Despite “adding more security team members, using third-party guard services, and implementing theft-deterrent tools,” the challenges with crime persisted. Below are the affected markets along with the remaining stores and employment data:
New York City
-Harlem: 517 E 117th St. (96 remaining stores, over 20,000 team members)
Seattle:
-University Way: 4535 University Way NE
-Ballard: 1448 NW Market St., Ste. 100 (22 remaining stores, nearly 4,000 team members)
San Francisco/Oakland:
-SF Folsom: 1690 Folsom St.
-Oakland Broadway: 2650 Broadway
-Pittsburg: 4301 Century Blvd. (32 remaining stores, over 6,400 team members)
Portland:
-Galleria: 939 SW Morrison St.
-Powell: 3031 SE Powell Blvd.
-Hollywood: 4030 NE Halsey St. (15 remaining stores, more than 2,500 team members)
Over 150 stores remain operational in these regions. Target is boosting security through locking cases for certain merchandise and allying with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations division. “While we will continue to make meaningful investments throughout our business, we cannot solve this issue on our own,” the firm noted.

When Jon was seventeen, his parents allowed him to perform at events, which allowed him to pursue his aspirations.
“They were always there for me, which was amazing looking back,” he remarked.

The parents of Millie and Jon attended the little wedding.
He expressed his excitement for the wedding to The Sun the week prior.
“My grandchildren will have more English ancestry than Italian or any other heritage I may have” That must be absurd, right? The musician screamed.
