Stink erupts following store renovation in Butler

 

This is the scene outside the Butler Walmart on West Fort Scott street as indoor plumbing (below) remains out of service due to an issue related to what may be a collapsed sewer line.

"It's a shame that the store looks so nice now but the odor has been unbearable" said an employee (name withheld) "As far as I can tell we've had at least two plumbing companies here and the last one said it appears we have a severely blocked or crushed sewer pipe."

Mid America Live made a visit to the store prior to closing of the restrooms and spoke with a very frustrated maintenance person who said "I've done all I can do. We need the pro's to figure this one out" as the problems appeared shortly after storewide renovation was completed a few weeks back.

We've been unable to reach the store manager for comment however, several employees stated that steps are being taken to correct the issue as soon as possible.
