Shocking surveillance video shows a ‘street takeover’ mob of thieves ransacking a 7-Eleven in Los Angeles Monday night.
“The suspects are facing multiple charges to include grand theft, looting, and vandalism,” the LAPD said in a statement. “We are seeking the public’s help in identifying persons observed on video committing these acts.”
No arrests have been made in connection with the robbery.
NBC Los Angeles reported:
The large crowd gathered for the street takeover on Monday night in the Harbor Gateway area swarmed the store at the corner of Figueroa Street and El Segundo Boulevard in a frenzy of looting and vandalism.
Security camera video showed the large crowd gathering outside the store. Inside, the situation quickly turned into mayhem when dozens of people emptied shelves, threw snacks and beverages, and left with merchandise. Police described the scene as ‘flash mob’ looting.
At least two people jumped over the front counter and threw items to the others in the crowd. A store employee, decisively outnumbered, hid in a back room of the store fearing for his life, police said.
“We really want to prevent this from becoming a new trend where they think they show up and take over a street or a freeway or any part of the city, that they’re just going to be able to do whatever they want,” said LAPD Detective Ryan Moreno.

Yup. Shocking. * yawn*
Animals.........................
Can’t wait to see this in a Republican ad blasting the Democrats for allowing this to happen......Oh wait, yeah I know
Something must be done about the Amish.
What makes you think an add is needed? This video sends it farther than any political add.
Those Newsom for POTUS voters are a Wild Bunch.
So the feds and cops will use the pings off their cell phones to Id and arrest the looters, right?
The very same people who will complain when the 7-11 closes.
The dems are experimenting with a novel method of transferring money from those who work to earn it to those who steal and blame their failures on the ones they steal from.
America doesn’t have a race problem, we have a problem race.
“left wing” robbers... Lol
They just can’t talk about the elephant in America’s living room.
Sheesh... remind me again what subclass supposedly has ‘privilege’...
And LAPD arrested how many???
When all the businesses in LA are run out (i.e.: leave) of the city, what will be left for these lawless thugs and lawless prosecutors to hit next?
I don’t find it all that shocking
Right! And they will throw them into solitary for months…unless they get a liberal D.A. and judge, then they will get to go home with their “purchases”!
And they wanna scream racism and food desert when businesses pull out of these God forsaken places.
And wonder why other races avoid ‘em.
Sheesh, I don't see the difficulty.
Just lock the doors from the outside.
Then set up cops with nets--waiting.
The LAPD video this is the source, has 1.2million views. That’s a lot, but not compared to the 330 million population of the country. Twitter doesn’t want ppl to see the video, mainstream media doesn’t want you to see the video, so a good way to get people to see it and understand the problem is to put it in an ad, and make sure more people see it.
