Nikaya Swain, an employee at the Dollar General (DGX) in downtown Raleigh shared her shock over hearing her place of employment was looted and set on fire. She said she's concerned it could impact her job--and the money she needs to feed her family and keep her family's bills paid.
TAKING ITEMS AS THEY WISH. WATER DAMAGE OVER HERE. YOU WERE CARE. WAS THIS OPEN? >> I USED TO WORK HERE. THE GENERAL MANAGER CALLED AND SAID IF IT GETS ANY WORSE TO SHUT DOWN THE STORE. WE DON'T KNOW IF THE WORKERS ARE WORKING HERE ARE NOT. >> I WAS OFF TODAY. >> ARE YOU WORRIED YOU WILL NOT HAVE A JOB TO COME TO? >> YES. I HAVE BEEN WORKING HERE FOR TWO MONTHS. >> ARE YOU FROM THE CITY OF RALEIGH? >> I AM FROM WASHINGTON COUNTY. >> HOW LONG DO YOU INTEND ON BEING OUT HERE? >> NOT LONG. NOT LONG. >> WHAT IS NOT LONG? AN HOUR? >> IT IS REALLY BAD. I FEEL BAD. IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE. MY COWORKERS WAS WORKING HERE TONIGHT. THEY HAD TO CLOSE THE STORE DOWN. I JUST HOPE EVERYBODY IS SAFE. IT IS CRAZY. >> YOU SAID SOME OF THE COWORKERS ARE WORKING. SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS THAT HAVE TO PICK UP THE PIECES. THEY DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS IF THEY ARE GOING TO HAVING TO CLEAN UP ? >> I AM SPEECHLESS. I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY. I AM SPEECHLESS. I WAS IN BED LAYING DOWN HAVING PEOPLE CALLING US. YOUR JOB IS ON FIRE. I AM SPEECHLESS. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I CAN'T REALLY BELIEVE MY JOB IS ON FIRE. THIS IS HOW I HELP MY FAMILY PAY BILLS. THIS IS HOW WE TRY TO GET THE MONEY TO LIVE AND HOW I HELP MY MOM PAY THE BILLS AND PUT THE FOOD IN THE HOUSE. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SPEAKING WITH US AND HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WORKS OUT. WE ARE STILL HILL REPORTING IN
