"I'm honestly going to go home and cry," Kathryn Swain, 53, said. "It's the center of this neighborhood... They know everyone who comes in there."

The city Department of Health slapped Absolute Bagels with a whopping 67-point violation sheet Wednesday - a severe report card that called for the immediate closure of the shop.
