SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) — Yet another major retailer in San Francisco has made the decision to close earlier due to excessive theft particularly at night, according to San Francisco Supervisor Rafael Mandelman. The Castro Safeway on Market and Church Streets was open 24 hours, but that’s not the case any longer. Signs posted on its entrance state its new hours are 6 am to 9 pm, effective October 24. It’s sad, upsetting and frustrating.”Mandelman said he’s now working on organizing a meeting with Safeway, San Francisco police and the district attorney. Mandelman added that Safeway told him police rarely arrest anyone for a property crime, by the time they make it on the scene.
