Maybe I am too conspiratorial but this does not make sense. Why risk being filmed on live tv? Two vehicles? A Mercedes and lexus? It was a $6000 camera but if there are many(2 vehicles) and they drive luxury cars, robbing tv crews is not how they make a “living”. This has occurred a few times since June and the article says there will be protection sent with crews from now on. Not that I generally care much about the media but there is more to this, I wonder if threats have been made but it is being kept hushed by the request of law enforcement?
It's the same tactic the Mexican drug cartels use.
The media will then only report what they are told to report.
Sounds like there is getting ready to be a major drug war and the drug lords are going to take over the city.
