DENVER (AP) — A vintage clothing retailer based in Tucson, Ariz. has cut ties with three of its Colorado stores after dozens of anonymous allegations of employee abuse surfaced on Instagram this week.

Buffalo Exchange has stores in 19 states, with three locations in Denver and Boulder.

The Denver Post reported the Denver Police Department is investigating the allegations against franchise managing partner Patrick Todd Colletti of sexual assault and underage drug and alcohol abuse.

No police reports related to the allegations were filed but Denver Police have opened an investigation.

A person using Colletti’s name and number emailed the paper, but did not respond for further requests for comment.
