A CVS location in Washington, DC, was forced to wipe its shelves clean of toilet paper and replace them with framed photos of the products amid rising thefts in the country’s capital.

If customers need to purchase any toilet paper or paper towels, they must tap a buzzer placed on the bare shelves to summon a store employee to retrieve it from a back room.

Retail theft rings have repeatedly struck stores in the nation’s capital and smash and grab burglaries have plagued retailers throughout the region, from suburban Maryland to northern Virginia.
