There were earlier reports that Walmart expected to rebuild all stores trashed by looters and vandals, but company officials later said they would open some stores and would not say which ones.
The Mayor said most of the others said they are committed to Chicago. She said she hopes Walmart follows suit. -WBBM "My hope is that they will come back," said Lightfoot. "But I got a resounding, 'Mayor, this is our city, this is our home,' from a lot of other retailers and I would hope that Walmart would follow suit."
Ka ei saa lootma jääda Amazoni kulleritele kuna nemad on samuti rünnakute alla sattunud. Hulk vedajaid on loobunud kuna katkine tehnika pole seda väärt.

Another Chicago driver said many of his colleagues are declining shifts due to safety concerns.
