Forum Shops’ Warner Bros. outlet seeks buyer, closure possible

The Warner Bros. Studio store at the Forum Shops at Caesars on the Las Vegas Strip will close if a buyer doesn't come forward within a month.

Michelle Fonseca, general manager of the Las Vegas store, said today her store may face the same fate as 129 other stores in the chain. AOL Time Warner, which became the new parent company after a $106 billion merger, said it would sell or close all its stores, citing disappointing retail sales.

Fonseca said the company is seeking a third party to acquire the Las Vegas store, one of the original tenants of the Forum Shops. The local store has a staff of 50.
