What it said gave Voit a sinking feeling: another restaurant specializing in hamburgers was set to open directly next to his. ''It was definitely a shock to the system because I didn't expect there to be two burger joints right next to each other in a small stretch of road," Voit said. "Because I'm not a major corporation, I viewed it as hurtful. I was shocked."

Gerald Bryda. The woman, Chelsea Kunupp of Wake, Va., was selling magazines for a company called Atlantic Circulation •of York, Pa., Bryda said. While in the victim's residence, Kunupp asked to use the bathroom. After she left, the victim discovered that prescription medication was missing from the bathroom. It was later discovered that Kunupp did not have a valid solicitation permit from the city. Any business representative conducting door-to-door sales must have a copy of the permit in their possession, Bryda said. Shortly after leaving the victim's house, Kunupp was located by responding officers in the area and found in possession of the victim's stolen prescription medication, Bryda said. She was charged with soliciting without a permit and obtaining controlled substances by theft. Kunupp was released on a $350 unsecured bond, Bryda said.
