The long-standing Starbucks in Osborne Village is set to close its doors next week – it comes one day after a man was attacked next door.
The organization confirmed to CTV News Winnipeg the closure will begin on May 6. While Starbucks says the closure is temporary, there has been no indication how long it will last.
“We would like to thank you for being part of our store community; you are the heart of who we are at Starbucks,” a sign on the front door of the coffee shop reads. “We are very thankful to have played a role in your daily routine and that you have shared these moments of your life with us.”
The manager of the store was not able to speak to CTV News, deferring comment to the brand’s communications department.
A spokesperson for Starbucks told CTV News this decision was made after 'careful consideration.'
The spokesperson did not give any specific reasoning behind the closure, and told CTV News they have no additional details to share at this time.
Area residents and advocates believe the closure has something to do with several violent incidents in the Village.
