Maybe she did not pay her taxes so he came in his tax coat to take matters into his own hands.
That doesn’t make sense. That’s a unauthorized room for employees only where they leave their belongings to work.

this is why it’s good that petland is closing down
I hope they catch this guy. The person he stole from is a sweet, hard working young lady who certainly didn’t deserve this.
