That is so disgusting!! Makes you wonder where he was in the store? Ladies dept? Undies? Could have been anywhere I suppose. Hate to think he was in the little boys dept. Glad he got caught (with his pants down no less!) Clean up in aisle 7.

SICKO.

I think, as a gas station attendant myself AND as a previous college village resident (the location of 8170 Batavia-Stafford Townline), that the kids throwing eggs is ridiculous. It's an embarrassment to college students and just a sad thing all together. It's time to grow up.

I will admit to being very excited and stimulated while shopping at WalMart but I guess I need to check out what kind of Sale they are having at Target!

omg lol these comments
but i dont think they should give us that much information
we dont know this person , he may have a mental disorder or he may have been so stoned either way he was definitly not in his right mind
or.... he lost his job and unemployment and figured if he goes to jail he will be fed, have free healthcare and heat and electric and.....

Anthony, to be honest it's just part of growing problems that the Village is trying to address with regard to it's own property from what I can tell, as Friday evening we received a letter regarding vandalism here. Unfortunately there's not much anyone but the police can do when the problems spread off-campus. This is getting extremely ridiculous, though at least we haven't had a ton of fire alarms or a repeat of 9 alarm pulls and two broken windows in one night (two years ago). As a current GCC student and CV resident, this kind of behavior is incredibly embarrassing to me, and should be to my fellow residents/students too.
