CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) – Another store at Northlake Mall announced it will close, according to its website.
Buckle, a retailer known for its casual apparel, footwear, and accessories will shutter at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, March 26, 2023.
The note embedded on their site reads:
“We are closing this location at end of day March 26.
We invite you to visit us at one of our nearby locations.”
The shop did not specify what contributed to its closure.
This announcement comes approximately three weeks after Northlake Mall had its third shooting in three months. The Apple store closed the next day.
Though Apple did not elaborate on their decision, Bloomberg reported “people with knowledge of the matter” said violence contributed to its eventual shutdown.
The first shooting came inside the mall in December 2022, when two people were injured. The second happened about six weeks ago, where no one was shot, but two people were taken to the hospital for non-shooting-related injuries.
