An Atlanta Walmart is slated to reopen in May 2024 with a police substation after the retail location closed last year following a surge in crime, Rough Draft Atlanta reported.

The Vine City Walmart Supercenter closed its doors after an alleged arson in December — the second fire that year. Another Atlanta-based Walmart on Howell Mill Road was also shut down following a fire.

Walmart has been struggling to combat rampant retail theft, CEO Doug McMillon told CNBC in 2022.
