If he could just hang in there at least four more months...

Isiah Carey filed a video report for KRIV-26 of a local convenience store owner who is so fed up with being robbed -- 20 times in 26 years of business -- that he's decided to close up shop.

Store owner Jack Hamid said that he is frustrated with HPD's slow response to his case, and in fact, he told Isiah Carey that his store was burglarized the same night after he had been robbed.

We'd suggest members of MayorWhiteChiefHurtt's new convenience store task force contact Mr. Hamid, as it sounds like he'd have a few things to tell them. We'd also suggest Chief Hurtt contact Mr. Hamid, but it's the weekend and he might not be in town.
