LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Kmart is closing multiple stores across the country - including four in California.
The closing California stores include locations in Anaheim, Citrus Heights, Chula Vista and San Mateo.
A spokesman for Sears Holdings, which owns Kmart, said the closures are part of a cost-cutting plan.
