Customers gather in Kansas City companies affected by criminals

Kansas City, Mo (KCTV) – outside of Druid Dice, on the Main Street in the scabbard, you can see a business that is closing a business.

In a note on the front door it says: “This becomes an overly frequent pattern in our community, and small companies like ours have problems keeping up with the damage, which is why we close the shop.” The owner is currently looking for a new place to move to.

In the store, customers browse through items with a 50% discount. For customers like Joel Blanchard, Druid Dice is much more than a business.

“The people here at Druid Dice are like a family for me,” said Blanchard. “I am in recovery, so this place gave me a safe place where I can expand my social spectrum again after I was addicted to drugs for so long.”

Blanchard and others come to Druid Dice to play card games like Magic the Gathering and One Piece.

“I bought a deck for my nephew so that we can rebuild a bridge and the game blew up in the air,” said Blanchard. “My brother started playing, then my brother's girlfriend began to play and my mother is playing now. It is this fun family activity that can perform every week. We share new cards that we get. It is this camaraderie and I would not have found out of a piece without a druid cubes. It has become a beautiful staple for my life. It's fun. I have a really good time here. “

Blanchard says when he recently came into the store and saw that the front door was put back on board again, it hurt. He hopes that people who collapse will soon be caught.

“The place I work was accommodated and people were in and off in 30 minutes,” said Blanchard. “They even went and came back with a tool to get into the safe. I would encourage the police to dig and see if they find a pattern when they will meet how they will meet. I know Alec, the owner of Druid Dice, pretty good, and it just hurts because I know that this hurts his family. I hope you can catch these people so that everyone can feel safe here again. “

At the front door of druid cubes it was found that it was not the only local business hit lately. It also mentioned Velo Garage and Tap House and Waterbird coffee.

Velo Garage and Tap House celebrated 8 years in NKC last week. During this time, 3 burglaries experienced it. Owner Kiley Sutter shared security material that the youngest showed last Wednesday. In the video you can see the person who broke your window. Sutter says that they didn't agree much.

“We don't keep any money on site, so they just did a lot of damage for nothing,” said Sutter. “If you get the alarms notification in the early morning, you will always be afraid. They cause several thousand dollars damage and they may have got $ 3.50 away. “

Sutter remains positive; Since then, the bar and bicycle shop have replaced the broken window and is preparing for a busy weekend.

“Snake Saturday is tomorrow,” said Sutter. “We are opened at 10 a.m., it will be the first kick -off from spring. We have a lot of people who appear and it starts on the corner where our business is on the 14th and Swift, so we are always happy about this time of year. “
