Massive Brawl Involving Over A Hundred Teens Closes Down Two California Malls
Newsweek ^ | Dec, 27, 2019, | K Thor Jensen

Posted on 12/27/2019 3:35:42 PM PST by Morgana

A conflict involving well over 100 teens in Stockton, California, resulted in the closure of two malls as the violence spread wildly out of control.

KCRA reported that the chaos began at around 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the Weberstown Mall. Police say that between 150 and 200 juveniles were involved in a large-scale skirmish at the shopping center. Fifteen police cruisers were dispatched to the scene, and officers worked to evacuate the combatants and lock down several entrances to the mall to prevent them from coming back inside.

Once the brawling teens were escorted to the parking lot, a number of additional fistfights began to erupt as police and security tried to calm the crowd.

The group then crossed Yokuts Avenue to invade the Sherwood Mall. Seeing the crowd coming, Sherwood Mall staff placed their facility on lockdown as well. Police eventually managed to disperse the crowd, but no one was arrested.

One participant was taken to the hospital with unspecified injuries. An additional report of a female employee being assaulted at the mall's AT&T store has not been confirmed.

In video of the event, posted on social media, groups can be seen throwing punches and pulling people apart from clinches, then running when police arrive.

We have one mall here in Lexington, KY, and this week there was a scuffle like the one described in the article. In this case, 50-75 “yutes” refused to leave at closing time. The cops managed to disperse them without arresting anybody.

online avoids teen violent riots...

//////////////////////////////////////

True. And widely followed by millions shopping online.

Only should we sacrifice our great couintry by surrendering to the vicious, violent,amoral, uneducated element of society?

Like High Noon with Gary Cooper or Death Wish series with Charles Bronson. Admittedly, I won’t boldly venture out first to battle the “teens” myself. So I should shut up.

I was more thinking of paying tax money to have armed people dress up in uniforms, carry badges, ride in patrol cars and enforce the laws. Oh, wait, there is a group paid to do just that. “No arrests were made.”

“Again no riots nor angry drivers in the parking lots.”

Well, Dave, then just what do you do for excitement?

I think these incidents are one of the reasons we’re going back to outdoor malls.

There didn’t appear to be any White “teens” involved.

Better move that mall to a safer location.

They were probably fighting over the last copy of Heidigger at Barnes & Noble.

“Ben, Little Joe and Hoss went to get supplies.”

That’s because they went to Virginia City.

Big Valley had Stockton as a hub. And that port city has always been a nasty place.

So all of them were between the ages of 13 and 19?

What a coincidence that all the perps could have been born within 6 years of each other.

Developers and merchants used to try providing nice mall shopping opportunities. A few worked out but many didn’t. Usually for high crime and riot and theft reasons. Alas!

I have never seen as many delivery vans as this year - and I’ve never seen so few news stories about crowds at malls.

Nobody is exposing their loved ones to the violent Simbas; some malls are trying curfews, but I believe it is too little, far too late.

Victoria Barkley and her brood lived near Stockton, but your point is the same.
