The man who made the original post said he took the photo Monday morning. He says when he asked an employee about the sign, he was told “the owner has set a policy of no masks.”

The sign was gone when a reporter went to check it out at 1:30 p.m. A manager at Helbachs told the reporter they were not interested in commenting.
