Walmart evacuation

Recommended Posts

We just passed by at about 2:30 pm and it was still shut down. Some of the Walmart employees were gathered over by the AutoZone, the parking lot was totally empty, and a cop with an automatic rifle was strolling around. On the bright side, we went to Soriana in Chapala since Wally's was closed. Soriana was busy, but they had a lot more check-out lines open than Wally's usually does and there was very little wait. Everything looked cleaner, better organized, and better-stocked than when we last shopped a while back. Soriana is starting to look like a very attractive alternative to Wally's, particularly since Wally's usually has way less check-outs open than are necessary for the crowds they get. Jus' sayin'.

🔴 || Around 350 people, among employees and customers, were evacuated this Saturday from the #Walmart supermarket, located in #SanAntonioTlayacapan, due to an LP gas leak. The emergency was recorded around 12:30 p.m. with no reported poisoned people or injured. According to preliminary information, the leak would have been recorded inside the supermarket kitchen, so it had to be evacuated, as did the parking lot. Staff of the Civil Protection and Firefighters Department are already found on the site, as well as elements of the Public Safety Directorate and the Mobility Directorate as support. Meanwhile, the supermarket is completely closed, so people are asked not to act for their safety.
