LINCOLN, NE (WJW) — Toilet paper has become a coveted supply at grocery stores across the country in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, with many struggling to keep up with demand.

Now, it appears people have found another way to get some: rest stop bathrooms.

According to the Lincoln Journal Star, travelers have been stealing toilet paper at stops along Interstate 80 in Nebraska. It’s gotten so bad, the Department of Transportation has had to make some changes.

A spokesperson told the newspaper that rest areas will now be closed when an attendant is not present. Truck parking should remain open.

“We’re doing our best to keep them open, but we want to make sure when we do keep them open we have a safe location,” Kramer said in an interview. “With that becomes maintaining it and making sure it’s in a good condition.”
