CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Rite Aid confirmed Monday the company is slated to close all but four of its Ohio drugstore locations.
“Nearly all of our stores in Ohio will be closing by the end of September,” a Rite Aid spokesperson said to 19 News.
The company shared this list of the four locations that will remain in operation:
- 419 Claremont Avenue, Ashland, Ohio
- 735 North Water Street, Uhrichsville, Ohio
- 1955 Cleveland Road, Wooster, Ohio
- 1045 Wheeling Avenue, Cambridge, Ohio
The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protections in 2023 in connection to lawsuits and losses, according to the Associated Press.
The drugstore retailer has been closing locations since its bankruptcy announcement.
According to a spokesperson, most prescriptions and pharmacy inventory will be transferred to Walgreens to reduce disruption of service.
Rite Aid says the impacted stores will maintain normal pharmacy operations up to and including their last day of business.
“We are fully committed to helping our customers make the transition to their new pharmacy,” the spokesperson said.

Isaac Okoro’s Future With Cleveland Cavaliers Uncertain In Latest Update
![Isaac Okoro’s Future With Cleveland Cavaliers Uncertain In Latest Update Isaac Okoro’s Future With Cleveland Cavaliers Uncertain In Latest Update](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_6725,h_3782,x_0,y_252/c_fill,w_1440,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/ImagnImages/mmsport/cavs_insider/01j62p484vrzt9rvy0tk.jpg)
The Cleveland Cavaliers have given out contract extensions to Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen this offseason. However, they’ve yet to come to terms with restricted free agent Isaac Okoro.
With Training camp just around the corner, Okoro’s chances of returning to the Cavs are apparently dwindling with every day that passes.
Sam Amico of Hoops Wire reported on Saturday morning that “The Cavaliers have made some offers to Isaac Okoro, a restricted free agent. But Okoro’s camp has turned them away. So the Cavs are fully expected to try to trade Okoro before training camp tips off in October.”
“That doesn’t mean they will. It doesn’t even mean they’re determined to do so. But it does mean they will explore the idea. Or in the case of the Cavaliers, revisit the idea — as they’ve already had a few sign-and-trade discussions, sources confirmed to Hoops Wire.”
The possibility that Cleveland could look to move Okoro has become a key talking point over the last few days.
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst gave an update on the situation on Friday and also revealed that there has been limited communication between the Cavs and Okoro’s camp so far.
“I think there’s only been a little bit of talking back and forth. I’m sure it will increase as we get closer to camp,” said Windhorst. “I think the Cavs are realizing that all the money is spent out there. Okoro has the option of taking his qualifying offer. I am told the Cavs made a multiyear offer, whatever that’s worth.”
Okoro has been a key reserve for the Cavaliers over the last four seasons. Last year, he averaged 9.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.9 assists while shooting 49 percent from the floor and 39 percent from behind the arc.
Ice was also one of Cleveland’s best perimter defenders and proved to be one of the best defenders in the game.
However, Cavs already have numerous wing-guard combos who could fill in for Okoro if he were to be traded. Caris LeVert could see an even bigger role off the bench and Cleveland’s first round pick from the 2024 NBA Draft, Jaylon Tyson, has the potential to be a great scoring player off the bench.
The Okoro contract situation is certainly something to keep an eye on as the offseason comes to an end.
