Finally. After many cases of blatant theft, and a serious attack at a Liquor Mart in Winnipeg on Wednesday, Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries has announced a new security initiative to be put in place at their stores.
Locked, secure entrances will be constructed, and anyone wishing to go in must show valid photo I.D. Otherwise, they won't be let in.
The Tyndall Park location in Winnipeg will be the first to have a secure entrance constructed, following a serious incident in which one employee was sent to hospital after an unprovoked attack, and 2 others were injured.
The new security initiative will be rolled out to liquor marts across the province. In the meantime, Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries reminds you to not get involved if you witness a theft.
