🚨 CAUGHT ON CAMERA 🚨

Last night (1/27 around 9PM), three teenagers walked into our St. Pete Chillum location and were immediately asked to leave after our H**ptender noticed they weren’t 21. Instead of leaving, they tried a little distraction dance around the store. While our clerk kept doing her job and asking them to exit, each of them took turns grabbing jars of h**p flower and running out.
The wild part? 👉 They didn’t even take any mushrooms. 🍄❌
A police report has been filed with St. Pete PD (Case #003122).
This appears to be similar to a prior grab-and-run incident, which may be related.
