While this does say something sad that people are at the Dollar Store on Labor Day, it's also hilarious. Enjoy!
NORTHGLENN – Police say some shoppers at the Dollar Tree called police Monday evening after discovering there were not any employees in the store.
A sign on the window at the Dollar Tree at West 106th Avenue and North Huron Street said the store was closed for the Labor Day holiday. Northglenn Police say a lock malfunctioned and shoppers who apparently did not see or ignored the sign were able to get in.
"(They) were browsing around, doing their shopping and no one was there to ring 'em up so one concerned lady decided that it didn't look right and called the police and we were able to get ahold of a manager," said Ian Lopez with Northglenn Police.
Shoppers told police approximately 15 people were in the store at the time.
"The lights were on inside, music playing in the background so it looks as if it's business as usual, there's just no employees around," Lopez said.
One newstipper told 9NEWS the cash registers were open and empty but police say it does not appear that anything was stolen.
"Luckily for us, it doesn't look like anything was stolen and it shows that people can be honest and good," Lopez said.
Police were able to get in touch with a manager who came and fixed the lock and closed the store.
