Our circulation manager, Laura Horvath, informed me today that on this holiest of holy days—the day that our Best of Tucson(R) starts appearing on Tucson’s streets—we discovered that one of our Tucson Weekly art boxes has been stolen.
David Horowitz’s “Scuba,” which had been placed outside of the Trader Joe’s at Swan and Grant Roads, was apparently stolen. Our delivery driver says the manager of the Trader Joe’s last saw the box at 5 p.m. last night.
If you have any information on the box’s whereabouts—or the fuckwit(s) who may have taken it—please call 520-295-4221.

Was the box properly secured? If not, whom do we call?
I don’t know whether it was secured. Not all of our boxes are secured, because in some locations, there is nothing to which we can secure ’em.
Perhaps the art boxes should be located *inside* the store…
why lock up a “free” paper inside a store when the store is closed? where it is inaccessible to the public? in some places that are 24/7 like circle k they are *inside* the store.
disclaimer I do not work for tucson weekly i am just *observant*
