I was surprised that none of the criminals shown in the security footage were wearing yarmulkas.

In-N-Out’s departure deals a symbolic and practical blow to Oakland. The iconic California chain draws consistent customer traffic as a convenient rest stop for Oakland International passengers and attendees traveling to Oakland Athletics baseball games at the nearby Coliseum. Now the closest In-N-Out is over 20 miles away.

More poor journalism.
There are a number of In-N-Out locations closer than 20 miles from the Oakland location.
San Lorenzo 6 miles
Alameda 8 miles
Hayward 11 miles
Union City 13 miles
San Francisco 17 miles
Pleasanton 19 miles

Is the writer lazy, ignorant, or trying to further sensationalize/ embellish the article by posting false information?
Did they just pull the 20 mile distance out of thin air?

Truth in advertising, I'm a reposter. I can't take credit for it.

It would make a great electronic billboard.
