Walgreens is closing five more San Francisco locations as the impact of California law and city leadership have led to what another pharmacy chain described as “one of the epicenters of organized retail crime.”

Walgreens previously told the city’s Board of Supervisors that it had closed 17 stores in the city. In announcing the shuttering of five more, Walgreens spokesman Phil Caruso said, “Organized retail crime continues to be a challenge facing retailers across San Francisco, and we are not immune to that.”
