A heartwarming tale of people doing the right thing in the midst of absolute chaos. But it gets weirder...
Safeway spokesman Craig M. Muckle said a member of Safeway's security staff got to the store shortly after 2 p.m. Muckle said he was told by the security staff member that all four doors were locked and nothing appeared out of the ordinary.
"Nothing was actually taken," Muckle said. "And there was no money left on the counter."
Oh, so it was an urban legend? Not really...
The paragraph immediately preceding the above denial reads:
A Post reporter was able to enter the Tenleytown store and saw the money, confirming accounts by witnesses and the police. In fact, police said they were having trouble finding anyone from the supermarket chain to secure the building about 1 p.m.
So who are you going to believe? Safeway spokesman Craig M. Muckle? Or the police and Washington Post? I don't know; it makes me suspicious of Safeway's other denials.
