Stunned bystanders caught the shocking moment a gang of at least 30 brazen thieves ransacked a Yves Saint Laurent store in an upscale California shopping center.
Videos posted online showed multiple people in dark clothes, hoods and masks running into and then quickly out of the store at the Americana at Brand shortly before 5pm Tuesday.
Glendale police said the thieves got away with about $300,000 worth of merchandise, after they overwhelmed the staff and took everything they could in less than a minute.
None of the thieves used any weapons in the brazen scheme, and no injuries were reported.
An investigation is ongoing, as California continues to deal with a spate of robberies after lawmakers lowered the punishment for thefts of merchandise under $950.
Footage from the robbery at the store shows a group of hooded and masked thieves running out of the shop with arms full of merchandise.
They sprinted through a walkway to the curb, where police said about 20 cars were waiting for them, and sped away in several directions.
One suspect seemed to have been stopped as he tried to flee by an Amazon delivery driver, who was seen tussling with the thief.
But somebody off-screen could be heard telling the delivery person to just let him go, saying it is 'not worth' getting struck by a fleeing vehicle.

Dang yutes.
Every city in America needs a Frank Rizzo, and the cops need to dole out wooden shampoos.
Violence is the only thing these savages understand.
They voted for it, and if they didn’t they stayed.
Sounds like a good use for a Halon system.
I like how you think!
Blacks knowing nothing will happen to them since they are part of the protected class..steal whatever you want, store after store, and security just stands there
Glendale is heavily Armenian, they have spoken out against the trans nonsense being taught in schools..they didnt vote for this..unfortunately its LA county that voted for this crap and they represent the largest voter demographic
If I was running YSL, I’d have had plywood on the windows of this store years ago. Eat the lease, it’s less than the theft/insurance premiums.
When insurance companies stop paying out for lost products during looting, will the owners be able to shoot the looters?????Or will they have to leave the black ones alone????
S. CA went from the Beach Boys to the gang boyz...And it’s aint coming back!
Not a crime in Cauliphonya. The stolen items didn’t belong to any politicians or Hollyweird elitist movie stars so it’s no big deal.
They’ll do nothing to lil DeMarqese Jackson.
They’re looking for 30 suspects?
Bewhahhahahahah
considering the police do nothing, the prosecutors and judges do nothing then the only justice left is down a
gun sight. it wouldn’t take long to stop this.
Oh it’s easy. The look is already posted to facebook so just look there. All they need to do is catch a few and get them to rat out the others
They could post their photos at the Americana itself and the thieves wouldn’t be charged.
DA is George Gascon - couldn’t be more criminal friendly.
If owners were able to do what Korean owners did in LA riots, it would stop real quick.....
At some point these thugs just need to be shot. That’s it.
All looters, rioters and arsonists should be shot on sight.
