Perps descriptions seem rather vague...

Oakland is a great place to shoot, he said.

Guess they have some local color for their action shots.

This happens in Oakland at least three times every year.
You would think the word would have gone out by now.
If you film in Oakland, first inform the police of your plans, then bring your own armed guards.

Probably ended up with perps, maybe from another incident, on footage. Easiest way for bad guys is to take all the gear and tape or film.
To: dynachrome
This guy either has not been paying attention to the news or he was playing the odds. If the latter, maybe he wanted to upgrade his gear or is a liberal or both.

The robbery has prompted Awesomeness officials to decide they wont film again in Oakland
lol....If the crew really wants some reality, tell um to head to South Central LA, drive around in some flashy car with Trump flags on it at about midnight.
I promise top rating and the show should will be a sensation.

They should make a law against doing that sort of stuff (sarcasm). At least they provided a great description of the suspects (again, sarcasm)

There was a Robbery very similar to this in Oakland a few years back and think it was at the same Pizza place, It was also a film crew

Welcome to reality.
It’s all just part of living in cities that we now need to get used to.
Right?

Africans being Africans I suppose, but hey, it’s their color that’s the problem not their criminal behavior.
