15 store closures include some in Nevada

Longs Drug Corp., Walnut Creek, Calif., will close 15 underperforming stores, including some in Nevada, the company said Wednesday.

The company operates seven stores in Las Vegas, one in Henderson, five in Reno, two in Sparks and one in South Lake Tahoe, but the company has not determined which stores will close.

A company spokeswoman said the money-losing stores would be closed during the company's current fiscal year and a list of those stores -- in California, Washington, Colorado and Nevada -- would be announced later this month.
