BALTIMORE (WJZ) Another mob of juveniles causes problems in downtown Baltimore. This time, it happens inside a 7-Eleven where dozens of kids came for free Slurpees but ended up stealing much more.
Derek Valcourt explains the entire incident is caught on video.
But city police and managers at the 7-Eleven have refused to let WJZ see that video. But there are plenty of people in that busy area of town who saw it all unfold. A nationwide 7-Eleven free Slurpee giveaway brought 35 to 40 kids into the Light Street store around 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
It was a lot of kids and they were out of control, Kesha Chester, who was at the store at the time, said.
While some kids lined up for the free Slurpee, witnesses saw other kids raiding the candy shelves.
They went in, they started going everywhere in the store, grabbing things and then they just run out. And I knew that they didnt buy it because they just run out, Kendra Mellerson said. They ran that way and they ran that way. And the guy was trying to come out and stop them but they couldnt because there was so many.

The Ministry of Truth must do a Trayvon edit job on it first.
Darned Amish yoots on the rampage again!
Obama’s sons going for Ice Tea and Skittles.
All I need to know is that was in Baltimore, excuse me, “Bawmaw”.
If it ain’t white, it’s alright.
Derek Valcourt explains the entire incident is caught on video.
But city police and managers at the 7-Eleven have refused to let WJZ see that video.
The store manager told police:
Those dang Amish. All I heard when they pulled away was...clip clop.....clip clop....clip clop...
But it is racist to not open stores in such areas. Not a rational economic decision based on such experiences - just racist.
Doggone Canadians...
That 7-11 is an oasis in the food desert.
The video must be exceptionally violent and brutal...
No doubt the store manager had his teeth kicked in, after being repeatedly stomped, kicked and beaten on the floor.
"Police declined to be interviewed for this story" because it's top secret.
The manager of this 7-11 is a dunce. If you are going to hold any kind of event in *Baltimore*, for heavens’ sake, you have to plan ahead.
The first thing would be to have a bunch of extra security people there, and then offer the free Slurpees, or whatever, in the parking lot, not in the store proper. Keep the store closed for the duration of the event.
The way they set up the event was as dumb as going into the hyenas pen at the zoo and offering them doggie treats(*) by hand, and expecting them to behave politely.
(*) Yes, I know hyenas aren’t dogs.
“Flash Mob” is such a harsh term...how about we just call this “How to supplement your EBT” ?
I don’t even know why we even NEED Baltimore! Like Detroit, whatever economic rationale for its existence obviously faded long ago. I say relocate the people and raze the city and make it a tobacco plantation or a duck-hunting ground, for example....
You know that everyone of those Flash Mob individuals believe their are victims and they are unjustly profiled are looked on with suspicion from time to time.
He's probably a racist too, who intentionally triggered this event.
They should find out what hospital he's in and charge him with a hate crime and being a dunce.
Best looking 7-Eleven I’ve ever seen.
What did the uncivilized savages do to deserve that in their hut village?
