Broken AC unit impacting Warren Dollar General hours

WARREN A broken air conditioning system at a Dollar General in Warren is causing the store to close early on a daily basis.

The store at 5585 Mahoning Avenue has been closing early to accommodate customers from shopping in an uncomfortable environment in the heat of summer.

Though each day varies, the store has been generally closing between the hours of noon and 3 p.m. and does not reopen for the rest of the day.

The manager tells 21 News the air conditioning unit was never fully functioning and assures new parts have been ordered to repair the unit. However, crews have not yet arrived to install them.

The manager is hopeful the air conditioning will be fixed sometime next week.
