Footage Shows "Looting Across Buffalo" As City Plunged Into Chaos After Blizzard
A winter storm barreled through Buffalo, New York, over the weekend and ended Christmas morning, but the emergency was far from over, as claims across social media indicate widespread looting.
"Looting in Buffalo being significantly downplayed by local media," said one Twitter user. Local media outlet WGRZ reported, "New York State Police confirm reports of 2 looting incidents." But judging by the footage posted on Twitter, looting appears to be widespread.
