Coava Coffee Roasters is a small business in Portland, Oregon which has decided to close their downtown location, citing not only crime but incidents of \u2018extreme violence\u2019 in the area.<\/p>\n

It is just one of the latest businesses to close in a deeply blue city due to rising crime.<\/p>\n

In recent years, this has become a serious problem in areas governed almost exclusively by Democrats.<\/p>\n

KOIN News<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n

Coava Coffee shutters Downtown shop, blames crime, \u2018extreme violence\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Portland-based coffee shop chain and wholesaler Coava Coffee Roasters announced on social media that it plans to permanently close its downtown location at 1171 Jefferson Street on April 13, blaming the closure on an increase in crime and \u201cextreme violence\u201d in the area.<\/p>\n

The business stated that it has been unable to reduce crime at the cafe despite its efforts to add more employees and provide them with de-escalation training and hazard pay. As a result, the company said that it can no longer manage the troubled location.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team members at this cafe have been on the front line enduring extreme violence and criminal activity on an almost daily basis for the last few years \u2014 crime and violence that is only increasing in frequency and severity,\u201d Coava Coffee stated on its social media accounts. \u201cFrom theft to physical displays of violence, threats of harm, break-ins, window smashing, and repeated traumatic in-cafe incidents where both staff and patrons feel unsafe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Opened in the summer of 2017, the Jefferson Street cafe was the business\u2019s newest location. Coava\u2019s espresso bar at 2631 Hawthorne Blvd. and its primary coffee bar at 1300 Grand Ave. are still open to the public. The company\u2019s website states that its Public Brew Bar and Roastery at 1015 main Street remains \u201ctemporarily closed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a local video report:<\/p>\n\n

Are you sensing a trend?<\/p>\n

Recent big store closures due to crime, employee safety, and shoplifting:

Do people on the left even realize that they are driving other people away?<\/p>\n

What happens when all the local tax money dries up?<\/p>\n
