Bronx Target Has Security Measures Like Fort Knox, Can't Enter Without A Parent, Items Behind Glass
Retail theft has gotten so bad in blue cities that retailers are going to extremes. Target shut down self-check registers and banned minors from entering in one Bronx location unless accompanied by an adult. In many ways, Target - with its on-site Starbucks locations and snack counters - has become the new mall. Teens can drop by for a drink, something to eat, and a chance to walk around the store, perhaps buying something, or maybe just window shopping. At least one Target, however, has decided to prohibit people under the voting age from the store unless they're accompanied by someone who is at least old enough to purchase alcohol.
The store, located in the Bronx, had the following notice, posted on its door, according to a video posted by Business Blurb on Instagram. "All guests under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult at this Target store." The same location has also taken the extreme step of closing all its self-checkout lanes. Target has generally made decisions about self-checkout and locking up merchandise at the local level (although the company does have a policy on locking up all merchandise in a category, not just select items).
