At this time, an estimated 50 to 150 people or more are actively looting and breaking into a cargo train on the west side of Chicago, Illinois. Police have been dispatched to the scene to address the ongoing incident, with reports of individuals stealing boxes of items, possibly including TVs, from the train's containers. Witnesses describe the situation as chaotic, with looters working quickly to empty the cargo. This is still a developing story.

That’s not looting.

That’s organized crime.

From the wide shots it’s clear that they only targeted 2 containers. They obviously had inside knowledge of the train, its schedule and which containers to open.

I wonder if they’ll discuss INFOSEC at the longshoremen’s extortion meetings.../s

The three letter agencies (yes, we trust them so much (eye roll) but there are probably a few good guys still) and the USSS need to get involved in this.

They need to be sure something bad was not on that train, the the free for all being cover for it being taken, moved, and used somewhere for evil.

(And they need to investigate each other also. The good guys might be on only one group of investigators.)

Do I watch too much Hollywood? Is John McLain a real guy?

Wasn’t it John Rockefeller who said you couldn’t run a railroad without a fifty caliber Ma-Deuce?

“A train at rest is a train at risk,” said Keith Lewis, vice president of operations for CargoNet, a company that tracks cargo thefts.

Imports or Native born?

Because this kind of thing is SOP in certain countries.
