Lowe’s pullback on its expansion on Long Island, N.Y., provided an opportunity for Target, which purchased an 18-acre site in Huntington Station from the home improvement retailer, according to a report in the Long Island Business News.
Police Chief William Bilinski had just purchased some brown outdoor carpet on July 24 when he noticed something suspicious going on in the parking lot of Lowe’s, according to a story in the Times-Tribune of Scranton, Pa. Four people were sitting in a vehicle just outside the store; after they moved the vehicle in front of the garden center, two of the occupants went inside.
