dianefrank+FollowRestaurant owner’s secret books land him in prisonA local restaurant owner’s double life just caught up with him—Remigijus Mikelenas, who ran a café and juice bar in Canton, is heading to federal prison for hiding over $3.5 million from the IRS. For years, he kept two sets of books: one for the taxman, one for himself. He even bragged about it to an undercover agent! Now, he’s facing a year behind bars and must pay back nearly $1 million. This case really makes you wonder: How common is this kind of tax dodging in our local businesses? What does it mean for honest owners? #Food #CantonMA #LocalNews20Share
Annette Jones+FollowTexas grocery line drama sparks unityA tense moment at a Texas Walmart turned into a powerful show of community when shoppers stood up to a man who cut the line and rammed a woman with his cart. Instead of letting it slide, people in line immediately called out the behavior, backing up the woman and making it clear that respect matters—even in a grocery store. The crowd’s quick action led to the man being kicked out and ticketed for assault. It’s a reminder that, sometimes, strangers have each other’s backs when it counts. Would you step in if you saw something like this? #Food #Texas #GroceryStore10Share
