A brick wall surrounding the store's trash receptacle has been hit with graffiti.
The Walgreens on Piney Orchard Parkway isn't open yet, but vandals have already made their mark. It appears that someone recently spray-painted a brick wall surrounding the store's trash receptacle. The graffiti appears to show a person's name, along with some numbers and the words "sorry bro." Reader Jay Stubler alerted Patch to the graffiti and sent these photos. (The photo above has been altered slightly by Patch to disguise the appearance of a profane word. The unedited photo is attached.)

Anyone who places an item on the rails could go to jail for up to ten years.
